Yet another reason to get the galaxy!

Wait a minute... my understanding of super AMOLED technology is that Samsung made both the active matrix pixels and the touch sensor as one layer instead of 2, and by removing that extra layer, Samsung made a superior AMOLED with more brightness and improved sun legibility (aka Super AMOLED).

You would think that Samsung implemented there own sensor , otherwise if they are using 3rd party sensor like Atmel maXTouch they will required to add it as an extra layer to their display, and this will render the Super AMOLED not so super.

Maybe i am wrong, or maybe Samsung worked with Atmel to produce this screen.

I was under the impression the Atmel is the chip/logic, and the touch screen layer it interfaces with is provided by Samsung. No?

But until then, its all rumor
