Backlit keyboard

[bigonroad]

Hey guys.

I'm looking for a Sandy Bridge i5 14ish inch laptop with backlit keyboard and a matt screen and a good battery life.

Order of importance:
1 Sandy Bridge i5
2 Backlit keys
3 Good battery
4 Matt screen
5 14 inch screen

Any laptops I should check out? Ideally would like optical drive, but can cope without it...

Bless,
Chris

All of the above = Dell Latitude E6420

Dell Latitude E6420 Review (not necessarily configured as you would)

You might want to look at that optional 9-cell (97WH) Primary Lithium Ion Battery +$79.00, depending on how much battery life you actually need.

Hmm. Seems pretty awesome. Any other suggestions? I do really like that and am definitely considering.

Been a long term hp user, but with the pathetic moves they are planning on making business wise, kinda wanna jump ship.

Hey guys, so - any other recommendations? Just wanna scan the field a little before I buy one...

Not really.
You're list of requirements really thinned out the field.

You might want to think about that optional 1600x900 screen upgrade. A very good value at just +$79.

But it doesn't have a matte finish
