Few questions to the team:

1) Is the screen latency numbers applicable to full-page updates also? I.e. scrolling a page of text.

2) How decent is the performance when dealing with large PDFs?

3) Is the digitizer pressure sensitive? Does it only work with a stylus? If not, how good is palm rejection?

we can't release more technical details than what is on the webpage for now, we're still working on the performance. but to give you a rough idea on where we are on UI responsiveness and loading times, this is what we're using for targets: https://www.nngroup.com/articles/response-times-3-important-...

and the digitizer is an EMR digitizer, completely separate from the touch layer. so we don't have to worry about palm rejection.

edit; you can see the speed of the zoom in the video, which also needs to re-render the page at a different scale. so that should give you an idea about the speed of page flipping.
