Not a Transflective
Not a Transflective screen.
This device does not have a passive screen which can be illuminated by natural light, to my knowledge.
This is my understanding of the definition of transflective...

I'm looking to buy a transflective atom netbook (preferably shipped with Ubuntu) whenever one becomes available.
Based on your data sheet I'd be taking out my credit card.
However, I believe it is plain false that this device has a transflective screen, with the only mainstream ultraportable devices with transflective screen being the super-expensive Toshiba Portege to my knowledge.
Please update your data sheet with the correct specifications, or send me any Asus material which claims a transflective screen, in which case I'll buy it.
