New Product Release: High-Efficiency Current Source Drives White LEDs for Backlit Displays
Maxim 1698
 
I had a look at this a while ago and I dont like:

- you have to use an external mosfet

- minimal voltage is 2.7V, so a min pf 3 cells is required if you wnt to drain them to 0.9V per cell

- power is up to 500mW, not very much...

But Maxim has a lot of very good other step up converters, but they are not labeled for the use with white LEDs, just look around a little bit...
