    Hi, does anyone know of any notebook that comes with a LED backlit WSXGA+ screen?

    I know that the Macbook Pro, Dell e6500, Lenovo T500 all offer LED backlit WXGA+ (1440x900) screens.

    Anyone heard any rumours of someone coming out with a 15.4" LED WSXGA+ (1680x1050)??

    I don't know of any, but maybe the next Macbook Pro that may be announced the 14th of october would fit the bill.

    I believe the Dell Precision M4400 will have an LED WUXGA screen if that's of any help use. I also wonder about the Dell Studio XPS 16...
