    I searched but to no avail, Does the light sensor only come with the A/V package or did they discontinue it? I saw pictures at notebookforums where someone got a m1210 without the A/V package and it did not include the light sensor. But in Abaxter's review on this site, it appears to be there at the bottom of the screen. Just curious because this is not mentioned on Dell's site, or at least from what I can tell. Thanks in advance.

    The light sensor is really bogus since you will adjust the brightness to your own needs anyways. I ended up disabling it after 2-3 days.
