I've seen some *very bright* LCDs that have problems getting much below
200 cd/m2. And some recent models brag about 1000:1 contrast ratios
(certainly not by making blacks blacker..) which will make it even harder to
get them to perform well with their backlights set to minimum.
I just wonder if we're going to have to find a new way of thinking about
monitor brightness and ambient light illumination as don't think the old CRT
way of thinking works with very bright LCDs.
