If we are serious about taking advantage of the black/white mode of the display, there is a lot of work to be done. Turning off the backlights does save a lot of power.
As an example, I challenge anybody to play Block Party in B&W mode. :) Sorry for the clutter if this is already on the radar. Is there a checklist for things like this? Now that I think about if a bit.... When was the last time you saw a B/W display? I think it was pre-web for me, maybe 15 years ago. Are there any good web pages on designing UIs for B/W displays? Maybe some hints on designing for color-blind people might be helpful. Is there a simple high-level API so a program can tell if it's running on B/W or color? I'm guessing a few applications might be willing to have two modes. This feels like a giant can of worms. I'm embarrassed that I didn't notice it when I first saw something about the dual mode display technology. -- These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.
