It's surprising how in almost all adverts for anything with a display, the 
display image is "photoshopped" on afterwards.  Sometimes this leads to 
hilarious outcomes, like when Nokia made an advert for their communicator 
style phone, where the photoshopper was a bit over-enthusiastic and 
photshopped over the Nokia logo below the display (even though the 
reflection of the logo was visible somewhere else), or when a 64x64 pixel 
display is shown displaying a very high resolution photo!  Of course in tiny 
font at the bottom it will tell you that this isn't a real image.
