As I take trains in Germany very often, I just took these two photographs of a glossy display (on an ICE train) and a matte display (on a local commuter train).
Looking at the market (and even Apple does this now), glossy display are everywhere. In my opinion, they are unusable. Perhaps at home, in a dark room to present a movie it is ok. But not for everyday's work.

I wrote this blog entry just sitting in this train (ICE 180). Internet is no problem because of EDGE/GPRS or 3G (UMTS) available nearly everywhere.
Just look at this glossy display. Perhaps it is a nice gadget for design students, but not for serious work.

This is an example of the displays in the local commuter train circulating from Weinfelden (Switzerland) to Singen or Engen in Germany. I think this is a good example of a matte anti-glare display.
