    Are the WXGA screens the same on 6700t & dv5z?

    I just read the reviews of the 6700t and the dv5z.

    If you get the lower resolution 1280x800 screen on the dv5z, will it be exactly the same as the one on the 6700t?

    I ask because I noticed the writer said the dv5z screen was one of the best ever, but it was the higher resolution 1680x1050 version. If the 1680x1050screen is brighter, more evenly lit and higher contrast than the 1280x800 version, then it would be worth the extra money even if I don't really want the higher resolution.

    Thanks.
