About the light sensor.....is it just me, or am i thinking backwards?

When you are in a dark surrounding, shouldn't the light sensor detect the darkness and make the screen brighter? I have found that sitting in a room with low lighting, the screen actually gets darker, and thus harder to see. Am I thinking about this incorrectly? I've tried a few demo Heros as well, and if you completely cover the light sensor (next to the earpiece), the phone's screen gets very dim. Expose it to light, and it goes back to a useable brightness.

You are thinking about it backwards. Which I also did with my Touch Pro haha. When you are in a darker room the screen has no reason to be as bright because it is easier to see. If you are outside in the sun then it is harder to see the screen so it must be brighter. It does get kinda low in low light rooms, I have found that if you make sure you aren't shadowing the phone it will get bright enough to see. Of course I'm usually in class leaned over shadowing it haha.
