Yep, as far as I'm aware, the 'Drivers Gradient' lens doesn't have any polarisation at all. I fly a completely glass cockpit aircraft (EC225) and have never had any problems with any of the screens from either seat with the Drivers Gradient lenses.

Maybe have a look on the Serengeti website where they outline the differences between the 3 types of Drivers lenses: Drivers, Drivers Gradient and Drivers Polarized. Unfortunately I can't link directly to the page because their website is Flash based.
