Well, LED-light screens can dial the brightness down a lot further than CCFL-lit screens, so I think we'll see more things like that in the future...it wasn't really worthwhile on CCFL screens because of the high minimum brightness levels.

Demas - Well, as you noted one of the major factors is the brightness and colour balance of the display compared to the ambient light. This is typically drastically easier to match with a reflective, not backlit, screen.

Also 3Qi...3Qi...ah right, the product yet to hit the marketplace and from the idiots who messed up the OLPC program, right.
