i have this phone, and just to answer some of your questions:
the backlight goes off after a few seconds after you have slid it down, but the touch pad goes off striaght away.
i got mine from Carphone warehouse (UK) got it on contract. its around £200 on Pay as you go, but ive seen it for around £140 on ebay.

all in all, this phone is beautiful. it does everything a phone can do, but if you really want to go for a reliable, materialistic phone, choose another one.
the batterys really poor. lasts around a day for me.
the sound is ok, but isnt loud enough
and the camera is very grainy.
its extremly slow when it comes to looking at your photos.

ive only had this phone for 4 months, and on the second month, i had to take it to repairs. they said its the manufacters fault and i was given a brand new one for free. its ben slightly updated with a new slide (or something like that) and to me it feels slightly wider. but, it works the same as the old lg KE800 model.

it is a really sexy phone.... but looks are deceiving

          I have it, is full of bugs, I kinda hoped LG made something decent but it only looks great. Battery warning is some 10 minutes long, mp3 playback droping out, not resuming after a call etc, softwase also needs tweaks...but it's beautiful :)
