Problem SOLVED!!!
I found a program that will actually turn the monitor completly OFF. that means the backlight and the LCD itself.
this program is called ScreenLock V1.2 can be used for both PPC 2002 and PPC 2003
Simply unzip the file and choose either the PPC 2002 or 2003 version and copy the .cab file to a folder of your choice and run the program.
you can then map a button to it.
To unlock the unit, you press the first button on the left and the forth button together. so on my AXIM X30 it would be the record button and the messaging button.
ENJOY!
