It looks to me like the Neo's screen resolution is higher even though it's a small screen.<br><br><table border="1"><tbody><tr><td>Screen

maybe multi-touch later</a></td></tr></tbody></table>NEO specs on the right.<br><br>As I understand it, the IPHONE isn't meant to be used with a stylus, but the NEO optionally can be. Personally I'd rather have the higher resolution. If they would potentially switch to this other screen, would they be sacrificing the resolution, and if so would it be worth it?

I was doing some size comparisons and it raised a question.<br><br>People at FIC are probably sick and tired of being compared to the<br>iPhone, but it is quite the competition when it comes to hardware.<br>For example, <a href="http://www.sizeasy.com/page/comp/971">
http://www.sizeasy.com/page/comp/971</a> is a comparison<br>between the iPhone and its screen against the Neo1973 and its screen.<br>As you can see, the percentage of the face occupied by the screen is<br>significantly more on the iPhone...
<br><br>I got the size of the Neo1973's screen from<br><a href="http://www.tpo.biz/ENG/business-eng/Activer-Matrix-VGA.htm">http://www.tpo.biz/ENG/business-eng/Activer-Matrix-VGA.htm</a> It is<br>there that I noticed another screen: the TD035STEE1. As you can see
<br>here, <a href="http://www.sizeasy.com/page/comp/972">http://www.sizeasy.com/page/comp/972</a> it is the exact same size<br>as the iPhone's screen. Is that screen compatible with the rest of<br>the Neo1973 hardware? What would have to be changed to support that
<br>bigger screen? Could it be a after-market mod?<br><br>I'm not a hardware guy and most of the acronyms on that TPO site mean<br>nothing to me, so type slowly.<br>-Steven<br><br>_______________________________________________
