Does the SCB-01 help out in dim light?
Depends on how dim it is. In light that is adequate for seeing the screen normally, the backlight can hardly be seen. If the ambient light is too bright and you turn on the backlight, the screen will seem to invert. The reason: The reflective aluminum sticker on a stock palmtop has been replaced with a transflective polarizer that allows the backlight to shine through, but also reflects light so you can see the screen when the palmtop is off. Unfortunately, when the light shining through the back of the film is brighter than ambient light (which occurs pretty much any time when it’s dark and you turn on the backlight) the screen appears to invert; black pixels become white and white pixels become black. (Well, since the light is blue, the black pixels actually become blue. But you get the idea.) To compensate for this and make the screen look normal, BACKLITE automatically inverts the screen when the backlight is on. 1 But if the ambient light is stronger than the backlight, the screen
