Better backlight? Damn, the one on my 5610 is pretty solid. Would love to see better. I just recently noticed how little the buttons are on my Squares. So that would be cool.

It’s better in two ways. First it’s a cool blue color instead of the green, which is easier on the eyes for me at least. And you can set how long it stays on, either two or four seconds. The 5610 only stays on like 1.5sec, I found if using it in real dark that by the time my eyes started to adjust to actually see it, it would turn off.

FYI the GW-B5600 series has the same module with the same backlight, but it’s a resin square. Has the small buttons and doesn’t have the extra crisp STN display, and most are negative displays.
