Anywhere between pitch black environments, and daylight, one can either turn on or off the backlight. The weak backlight would be improved by environment light, so the lighter it gets, the less you need to depend on the backlight.
As long as you got these 2 bases covered, to be able to read comfortably in pitch black rooms, and to be able to turn it off in daylight; you have basically covered all possible situations.
I don't see the need for making the led backlight as bright as tablets or LCD's.

The light makes a tremendous improvement in readability even in daylight, especially the rather weak daylight we get during a British winter. It significantly increases the contrast - and hence the readability - of the screen.
Please - I'm not trying to be picky, but it is NOT a backlight. A backlight is behind the screen. The PW has a frontlight. It's no harder to use the right word than the wrong one, is it?
