The most important feature should be the backlit keyboard!

and I've already found these:
Dell Studio 1558 - with core i7 - Ati HD 5470
or
Dell Studio 17 - core i7 - Ati 560v (this one is a bit old card afaik) - this could be out of my budget

are there any other brand that have backlit keyboard laptops?

I wouldn't recommend going with Dell studio 15 with an i7 CPU,because it produces a great amount of heat,so its recommended to choose a 17" chasis with a quad core CPU.(unless the cooling is good,which in this case Studio 15 doesn't have a good cooling for quad cores)
So my vote goes to Studio 17

Aside from Dell,Apple MBP's have backlit keyboards, and also some ASUS models as well(such as G series)
