Epson looks to be doing its part for the further slimming down of touchscreen-based devices, with it now touting a couple of new "all-in-one" displays that boast an integrated cover and touch panel. According to DigiTimes, two different models will be available, including 3.1-inch and 7-inch variations, each of which boast a WVGA resolution, and Epson's trademark "Photo Fine Vistarich" technology, which promises to make the screens viewable even at extreme angles. No word as to when they might actually make their way into some commercially-available products, however, but Epson will apparently be doing its best to woo potential partners at the FPD International conference in Yokohama, Japan this week.
like how extreme, like maybe 181 degrees extreme?
this looks like it should play doom
Probably won't blend though.
But seriously, I for one can't wait for my credit card computer. We'll soon be there, if we can solve the power problem.
Is power consumption in line with other handheld screens?
Does it look nice?
Will these questions ever be answered?
Star Trek Enterprise dashboards, here we come!
Hospital emergency rooms, here we come!
iPhone resemblance?
Well, some dumbass had to say it.
Zomg, a 3-inch touch screen and precisely nothing else? iPhone copiers!
Dude, the iPhone is a touchscreen, a button with a square on it, a bezel, and other junk tossed inside. If for you anything which involves a touchscreen and a bezel of some sort is an iPhone clone... well you need to think half a second about how many options one has when making a stand-alone touchscreen before commenting...
Oh, guys, didn't you hear? Nobody wants touchscreens. Guess you didn't get the memo...
pretty sweet resolution for a 3-inch screen.
