    How is the main display on the RAZR outdoors in sunlight? I currently have
    a Sony Ericsson Z500a and find the display very hard to see outdoors.

    Thanks

    My Razr is two months old and the outdoor display is poor. I'm surprised how
    bad it is in the shade of a tree.

    At worse case with my PPC-PE, I can hold the display in direct sunlight and
    read it, but not the Razr.

    Big differences between different types of displays -- in bright light:
    * Backlit displays wash out
    * Reflective displays get better
    * Transflective displays are in the middle

    A transflective display, such as used on the V6xx models, will do better
    than the transmissive displays employed on less expensive phones.

    Why Motorola chose to use the less effective display technology on their
    "flagship" Razr model is incomprehensible.

    I suspect it was a simple matter of form factor; i.e., thin.

    The choice is made by the consumer.

    p.s. Please don't switch posting styles (top vs bottom) in mid-thread -- it's
    confusing, and considered a bit rude. Thanks.

    John,

    You need to read it your self. You focused so much on topic 7 that you
    missed the big intro at the beginning. I don't see any reference to rude.

    Introduction
    This document is a description of the traditionally accepted "quoting style"
    in Usenet newsgroup postings. Please do not consider this to be a
    "regulatory" document ("Thou shalt do it this way because we say so!"), but
    rather as an "advocacy" document ("A lot of people think this is a good way
    to do it, and here's why.").

    I suggest you take your own advice, and actually pay attention to it, instead
    of just trying to find something to serve your own preference.
