Well, for one thing -- iPod Video display is 320x240, while the Axim (x50v and x51v at least..) has a 640x480 display. The issue is that the display is polarized for use in portrait mode. I read somewhere else on the forums that, a display that's polarized for multiple angles would require more power to make a brighter backlight. There's also talk about swapping out the Sharp LCD assembly with another one that Sharp makes that uses an LED backlight and is polarized for multiple angles.
