Re: Uneven keyboard backlight?

Left: Mogul - Notice how all the keys are virtually the same brightness.
Right: Touch Pro - Notice how 2, 3, -, = and backspace are very bright, the number row bright, and the rest dim, with Shift, Z, X and A almost unlit.

I purposely left it underexposed to better show the evenness of the keyboards in real life.

Well depending on what state your in you might just get pulled over..stupid NY..lol

But I agree with above statements. We pay this much for a phone and something like this goes past quality control? tsk tsk i say. I would love to tear one apart to look at it but not gonna take that dive with mine.

I also wonder if the brightness levels could be adjusted. Some of us are trying to figure a way to control the backlight timeout and in the process might stumble across this. Doesnt really solve the uneven issue but may lessen its impact.

Mine is exactly like this as well, build date 10/21/08. I took a picture:



Mine doesn't seem so bad compared to the picture Matrix posted.
