An increasing number of displays are using LED backlighting to provide greater brightness and contrast, but the ITRI notes that after 1,000 hours of use, current backlights almost invariably begin dimming. To counter this, the n... http://www.macnn.com/articles/07/12/26/led.life.extension.tech/ Wed, 26 Dec 2007 17:05:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/07/12/18/fujitsu.loox.r70/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/esta/content/0712/fujitsulooxr70.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Fujitsu this morning became the first computer maker to announce a notebook based on Intel's upcoming mobile Penryn processor architecture. The 12.1-inch LOOX R70 will use a consciously unnamed Core 2 Duo processor that will both improve speed and help optimize battery life to extreme levels: a stock battery will let the system run for as much as 9.7 hours, by Fujitsu's reckoning.
