The Default brightness setting of the nanonote seems to be 25. Maybe
somehow the settings got corrupted? Note that brightness does not seem
to correspond to intensity of the backlight. It just influences how LCD
pixels are driven. Wrong settings of this brightness value lead to the
kind of washed-out display that you saw.
