My 28S has a display resolution of 137x32 pixels.

So long as it is a black LCD and not blue, and so long as it is crisp and with adjustable contrast, this should be an interesting calc indeed.

Is this really going to be introduced in September this year?

Lastly, have a look at the mockup photo again. Are the buttons going to be that recessed? And are they going to be perfectly flat like that? I would of course want them to stick up a bit and be beveled like the Pioneer series keys.

I think it will be ready when it will be ready ;-)
However, until now, Swissmicros have been faithful (and way more!) to their promises.

I don't remember reading "September" anywhere, rather generally "wait for summer", so september could be a safe bet...
Anyway, since I waited until today, I can wait another year. I think that the same platform will be later used for other projects, like the WP34 was for the HP30B (WP36?, if the dynamic trio will find the time to apply). So waiting a little more could also be beneficial.

I think we'll have to wait for the final product to see the true positioning of labels, fonts and colors.
As far as keys are concerned, if you look at the 3D rendering, you will see that they are slanted as are in Pioneers, probably less beveled. But I can't really judge from there.
