That should definitely help. The display is transmissive (not reflective), so the contrast ratio is proportional to backlight/ambient light. Reflective displays typically have lower resolution and/or sluggish response, either of which would not have worked for the PX3. So we stuck with transmissive. And given the goal of low-power operation, the backlight can only be so bright.
