Hi,

gotta intrude this not Palm related forum space.

wanna know if anyone can upgrade a Palm Vx and add a back light,
something like the new palms or like handphones where it will lit up
the screen upon touching any buttons.

First you should RTFM. If that's too much, try to press and hold the
powerbutton for 1-2 seconds....

Be Nice!!
I've bought several palms and not a one of them came with an FM.

Check the backlight when it's completely dark. On the PalmV, the
backlight is worse than useless unless it's completely dark.

The FM if it's not there in paper form should be on the CD and if it's not
on the CD you should be able to find it in electronic form on the Palm
site.
