As I am part of the engine monitor and EFIS project, I would be interested if there would be some way to increase the daylight readability in challenging environment with direct sunlight hitting the screen on airplane panel through a clear canopy above the clouds where there is nothing blocking the sunlight coming with full power directly to the display where you are supposed to see some gauges. The N800 display already is somewhat better than the N770 for that, but more would be of course always better than less taking in addition that panel mounted airplane EFIS displays commercially available use ultra high brightness displays. In this environment the battery consumption is non-issue because the device is plugged all the time to charger. Ok, it might be also so that the 127 is the maximum the physical display panel can output and no more can be achieved, but I was just wondering if it wasn't. This may be fruitless speculation, but I would be glad if anybody of the hw gurus could enlighten me some? Thx. Best Regards, karoliina
