    First Macbook with LED backlight?

    Which was the first Macbook with LED backlight technology? A friend of mine argues that his late 2008 aluminium body Macbook (note: not Macbook Pro) doesn't have LED backlight, but I believe it has, or was it introduced right after with the "white plastic" Macbook? Thanks!
