16-Bit Color on the PEG-N710C
"If only the new CLIE had a 16-bit color screen..."
well it does.
Sixteen
On this page you can download Sixteen, an application that displays a series
of 16-bit color images on the Sony CLIE PEG-N710C screen. This application will run on
the Sony CLIE PEG-N710C or PEG-N700C. If it is run on any other device, it will simply show a dialog box and exit. Also, it won't run
correctly on the Palm OS Emulator (even the Sony version) - 16 bit color is
not supported by the emulator yet.
So what does this mean? Well, it means that the high resolution screen and
graphics chip in the PEG-N710C not only supports 320x320 resolution, but
also supports 16-bit color. Since the current devices run OS 3.5, there is
no support for this mode at the operating system level. But as you can see
if you run Sixteen, the support is there in the hardware.
We have no screen shots available... you really need to see it on the device itself.
Find somebody with a PEG-N710C, or beam it
to a display unit at Best Buy...
Enjoy!
