Mirasol. It is the answer to everything. Alas, I have it on good authority that it is not happening his year.

So move along, nothing to see here.

It’s nice technology but not really the answer to anything. For one, great tablets are already possible without that technology, it would merely be an incremental improvement. You don’t need a Mirasol display in the living room or the kitchen (except insofar as power savings are concerned). And: one technology doesn’t make the product. Especially tablets can only be great if the right technologies are combined in the right way. There are no miracle cures.
