CPT starts a little transflective LCD fire under Pixel Qi

No, not literally. CPT is showing off some transflective display tech that's remarkably similar to Pixel Qi's, and the good news is that CPT is actually a display manufacturer. Pixel Qi's tech seems more advanced, with 5X power savings with the backlight off, versus CPT's 2X, but if CPT can get this 10.1-inch, 1366 x 768 panel onto the market soon for a good price, we think they could find some takers. Check out a hands-on video after the break. Interestingly, Netbook News says text is a bit less clear when the backlight is off, so perhaps Pixel Qi doesn't have so much to worry about... though of course they'd have a lot less to worry about if one of the devices using their tech started shipping!
