In the May 96 Computer Shopper, Notebooks section, you'll find reference to it. They also mention "and other vendors", but don't go so far as to say who (or is it whom?). I've also seen reference to the 1024x768 notebook displays in recent "PC Week" kind of publications. Don't know if they've actually hit the market yet, though.
