That's the backlight. It shines very green, so instead of black/wihte you had grey/green. Today, you would install some LEDs and that's it.

Does there exist a description of the keyboard connector? I have a fully operational Psion 5 but its screen is cracked from top to bottom. Only the left side of the screen is now sensitive to touch. The whole screen shows data so that functions properly. Now I'd like to use the screen with my Rasberry Pi 2. Won't tear it down just yet. Thanks.
