no lighting available on laptop

Laptops submitted by howardnyc 02/17/07

while my IBM ThinkPad had its flaws, there was one nice thing which made it easier to use on airplanes, seminars and whenever I did a presentation....

a nifty eight watt light bulb which illuminated the keyword...

I just discovered -- the awful way -- this is not available on my INSPIRON 6400

lucky for me another of those presenting had another model (also DELL) and she was kind enough to lend me her clamp-on lamp (battery powered and now I gotta buy one for myself) 14 Comments »

Laptops

Latitude products submitted by kannan_r 02/14/07 **PARTIALLY IMPLEMENTED**

The Latitude 620 is pretty powerful when it comes to performance. However there are a coupld of things i miss when i compare it with an IBM TP.

1. A kepboard light is extremely useful, especially when you are working in poor lighting conditions

2. A scroll button is somthing that would help when you are on the move and dont have an external mouse

3. The laptop could be a little lighter

Light Up Keyboards

Latitude products submitted by lits 04/27/07

It is soo difficult to write a document or do anything on a laptop when the lights are off and screen brightness isnt blazing due to strain on the eyes.

LIGHT UP MY MOBILE EXPERIENCE WITH A LIGHT UP KEYBOARD!!!

ps. use LED's for that. The Latitude D420 should have this as a standard feature! 4 Comments »

Backlit Keyboards

Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Sales Strategies, Desktops and Laptops submitted by rarmasu 02/21/07 **PARTIALLY IMPLEMENTED**

I find myself many, many times in dark or poorly lit environments having to guess the various keys - would be fantastic to have a backlit keyboard - with backlit individual keys as the best option.

I would actually pay extra for that convenience if the option was available.
This could be done for desktops or notebooks.

LED Light

Can DELL add a option or standard a LED light in the Latitude portable that you see better you keyboard when you need your portable on darker places.

or a is it possible to lighten up all the keys (that there is a light between every letter) then you see all the letters in the dark. 4 Comments »
