Out of curiosity, how would I go about finding what technology a screen uses? I did a search and all I can really come up with for the Glowlight 3 is:
"A 6" high-resolution 300-dpi screen with built-in glare- scratch- and fingerprint-resistant lens provides a paper-like reading experience." That's how B&N describes it in specs and what most sites repeat.
PCMag's review states "The 300ppi, 1,448-by-1,072 E Ink Carta screen is the same as Amazon uses on its Paperwhite and more premium products, and it's very readable."
I admit it; I never gave a thought to touchscreen technology until reading this thread. And now I find that spec is hidden away, when it would be good to know.
