Screen Saver

Just wondering if most Axim users install and use a screen saver.

i don't think most axim users have a screen saver, but i do just for fun if i have it in the cradle. i use a freeware program called pocket candy, i use the matrix screen saver. also a screen saver is not required for an axim because its an LCD screen and it doesn't get a permanent screen burn in, though some x50 ow ers say they have had a temporary one...

I've got Pocket Candy as well as SPB Time which has a clock screen saver option. I don't usually turn them on though.

I'm no longer using one. I had PocketCandy on for awhile, but it was buggy and seemed to need soft resets at times to come out of screen saver mode.

I use Dockware Pro and it works great. They have a free version, but I bought the program. It wasn't expensive. $5 or $10 I think.

I don't use a screen saver... I'd rather just turn the thing off and save my pixels life!

I don't use a screensaver. What I'd like is something that times out the Today screen to display the theme photo. I have lot's of themes that get lost behind the Today info.

Do any of the screensavers you use have that option?

I use PocketClock, which displays a big analog clock on the screen.

Not quite, unless I'm missing something. Dockware displays .jpg pictures. I want to display the Theme images (.tfk)
