[OTZ80] [Poll] Do you want a backlit screen?
alberthrocks:
As the title says: do you want a backlit screen?
Consider the use, power usage, price, etc. when deciding.
Note that this includes both built in backlights, and separate backlights. Also, there is a hardware switch to turn it on.
(Can be controlled by software, if possible/needed.)
Builderboy:
I voted no because i cant see a situation where it would be needed outside of gaming (since this needs to be math oriented as well if we are to sell it) if its dark and you need light on your calc, you probably will need light on your homework as well! ;D
DJ Omnimaga:
I'M not sure if this is necessary. While some people may use the calc for gaming, its primary use is maths. Who does homework in the darkness? He won't even be able to see what he's writing. :P
matthias1992:
Yes, but if so then I am against the wifi, the combination of these would be * lethal* for batteries. Also, if the backlight makes the LCD (which for sure is the most expensive part alongside the case (I guess so at least)) more expensive then I might reconsider my vote.
DJ Omnimaga:
If wi-fi is included as well as this, I think the LED should turn into a different color when in wi-fi mode, unless the wi-fi enabled indicator was on the screen. That way it would be easier for people to know if their battery will be drained faster or not.
