Stop treating the XPS M1530 as a poor relative of the M1330

No LED backlighting.
No Ubuntu.
No Penryn processors.

At least we know the penryns will have to come eventually but will Dell please explain why they are deliberately holding off releasing LED backlit screens?

Feb 21		 I don't think the LED back lit technology is quite ready yet for 15 inch screens yet, but I am sure once it is, it will be offered by all laptop manufacturers. It's just a matter of time..

Feb 21		 mac does have 15.4 inch led screens, but the res is 1440x~900.

I want led with 1900x1200. also a backlight keyboard.

Feb 21		 in all honesty, the xps m1530 was probably only introduced because ideastorm users pushed for a 15.4" notebook with the same design as the m1530
