Downsides of it was the plastic got scratched.. I should try to buff it out someday.. and the other being the 160x160 resolution. But yup, you can do stuff without a backlight on an LCD.. My MacBook, you can use it in the direct sunlight with it's glossy screen if you turn the backlight off because the light shines through to the LCD.

I also had a Handspring VISOR. I even had the extra memory cartridge yew plugged into the top. Hated that thing. Eventually gave it away.
No regrets.
