Just so you know, the size of the screen has no effect on it's brightness. In fact, the area of a non-widescreened GB or GBC game when played is the SAME size as a GBC screen (which is smaller than a GB or GBPocket screen I might add, but not by much, and the sharpness certainly makes up for that).
The real cause of the dimness is the fact that the screen is simply badly designed compaired to the GBC screen. For some reason it just doesn't reflect light that well unless you have a lot, then the protective screen over the main screen reflects too well. That's the flaw. It's not really "a bit" either. Trust me, it's pretty dramatic, because the screen is made differently, nothing to do with size at all.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
