I think both your comments (distinct and complementary) are quite likely. Mirasol lighting does need to be enhanced for dark viewing and many of the Pixtronix's patents I found seem quite applicable to that activity. I also see Pixtronix as a distinct technology but not necessarily for small handheld devices. Once better front lighting is developed for Mirasol, it would seem like the best (battery-wise) solution for anything portable and handheld. With Mirasol, I am most impressed by the clarity of the MEMS pixels. With sufficent lighting, the display is an excellent still image reading device. For sharp video viewing Mirasol refresh rates need to be enhanced. Compared to lighting improvements, faster refresh seems like a more enduring challenge. It is within that area that I see Pixtronix as a distinct technology and likely better than Mirasol. As a power saving mechanism beyond LED TVs, I wouldn't be surprised to see Pixtronix displays being built into TVs. Qualcomm is getting heavily into the flat panel display business. Caroline Gabriel is a pretty smart cookie.
