the one issue i have with that style is pretty stupid really: it
always takes me a 2nd thought to decide whether they indicate "the
glass is 1/3rd empty" or "the glass is 1/3rd full". With color like
that, its not so hard, but i have a camera that uses that kind of
display to show memory-fullness, and its stuck with a black/white
approach that makes it quite hard to decide what its showing you.
