But I keep wondering, will the screen be too bright for reading in darkness ? I currently use a Palm TX with Dmitry's brightness fix, and it works perfectly. Has anyone tried brightness fix on a VZ-90? Will it work OK? TIA __________________ Digitizer not responding. Tap anywhere to continue...

The screen is very bright, but at the minimum brightness, it's ok for dark environments to read comfortably. Anyway, i would not recommend you to read for hours with absolutely no ambiant light.

I googled alot and can't help noticing there are NOT a lot of pdas or other gadgets supporting OLED screens... Are they still too pricey of is there something wrong with the technology? To longtime VZ90 users out there: is the screen always as bright as it was on day one? __________________ Digitizer not responding. Tap anywhere to continue...

Oled is used on many audio players ... but not on PDA ... did you noticed that since Sony left the market, PDAs, especially Palm Os powered ones are not evolving anymore ... Or event that hey are DE-evolving ...

You are perfectly right about that !

The screen is so great, it doesn't hurt your eyes like an LCD or CRT would in the dark. __________________ Sony Clie N760c -> Sony Clie TG-50 -> Treo 600 -> Sony Clie NX80, Fossil wrist PDA-> Sony Clie UX50 -> Sony CLIE VZ90 -> TG50, iPod 5.5 Gen -> Sony CLIE UX50, Sony PEGA-EB40 -> Sony CLIE PEG-TH55/E1, Samsung A900 (Blade) -> HTC Touch -> Palm Pre -> HTC Hero, Apple MacBook -> HTC Evo ->Nexus S 4G, Apple MacBook Pro I like iSpin, it's my favorite launcher!!
