the top quote sounded like a whine to me. the slcd does not make the phone any less valuable. you make it sound like you would be getting ripped off if you got one.

and no i don't comment specifically toward you or anyone. i read a lot of posts and respond either when i feel i can help or if i disagree with what is being posted. don't take it personal if i have disagreed with you before. no big deal just my opinion.

Personally I would rather have amoled over slcd. Your opinion is yours, and I have mine. But there's a line that's gets crossed when you say I was whining. All you had to do was disagree, fine, that doesn't bother me. You didn't have to even respond to what I say. and if you do, at least be respectful, I've never disrespected you. That is all I ask, lafester. Peace, and One.

I don't see the issue because they all look like crap in the sunlight/daylight. I can't see a thing on it now, so the change would have little impact...

from the article

"One thing to note at the very bottom of that memo is in regard to Certified Like-New Replacements. If you had an original DI with an AMOLED screen and need a replacement, you will be able to get one with that same screen type."

ahh, thanks, no issue then..!

If anyone get's stuck with an SLCD I'd happily trade them

All the Nexus One whoa's with the burn-in on AMOLED screens has me so paranoid I cant enjoy the phone. With an SLCD I wouldn't have to worry about burn in and I can enjoy the phone without fear

Agreed. I've had my inc for 4 months and the screen is already burnt in, especially around the time display in the status bar.

This is the first I am hearing about screen burn-in...

Good, outside of the contrast comparison. They need to learn what the actual definition of a contrast ratio is, and why OLED screens kill LCDs in this department.

Tests so far by tech sites for the SLCD vs AMOLED (on Desire):

1. Sharper text
2. Almost as saturated
3. Eats 30% more battery

As far as amoled:

Burn in? I have had my Inc since release and use the heck out of it. I aint gots no burn-in. Seems the juice that is put out to the diodes would not be enough to cook them.
