backlit keyboards

[count chocula]

are they all they're cracked up to be?

I love mine. It's the most useful thing when you're in a darkish place to be able to see all of the keyboard. Plus it makes people ooh and aah.

Honestly, the backlit keyboard is of little use on the MBP. The screen is bright enough (even when dimmed) to shed enough light to see all the keys. It does look cool when lit though.

you think the intel ibook/macbook will have it?

 

[Peyton]

I think not. Because SOMETHING other than aluminum and white plastic has to separate the two, something has to justify the price...maybe though...

 

[count chocula]

i hope it has one

 

[MacRumoron]

it is useless in my opinion... i never look at the keyboard so I wouldn't need it to be lit up

i guess it looks cool tho.. but i don't really need it

i dont type properly . i can type without looking, but i need occasional glances down. a backlit keyboard would help me alot.

I know a few doctors you might want to talk to about that.
