Time Out Option for "Device Lock" on Today Screen?

[squeeze]

Is there a way to trigger the "Device Lock" applet on the Today screen after a fixed amount of time (like 30 - 60 seconds)? Most cell phones have this function in case you forget to lock the keypad.

Thanks.

I use to 'turn power off after x minutes' to lock my phone. One of the thing I found that seems to be totally useless if the lock phone feature of WM5.

Actually,

The phone lock feature is extremely useful. Especially if you use a Bluetooth headset.

How else are you going to answer your phone while it is in its belt clip, and not worry about your body pressing buttons?? Without the lock feature, you would have to take the phone out of the case, turn it off (to lock the keys), then put it back in the case. Even still, when you hang up your call, the phone would wake back up anyway!

Yes, I totally agree that we need some sort of delayed auto-lock.

You do not need to touch the phone to answer it using a Bluetooth headset when it is in Standby mode.

Certainly not on my XDA Mini S - and it tell you this in the manual (which I believe is similar to the iMate manual.

All you need to do is use the BT headset button to answer, make a call using voice tags or end a call when the phone is in Standby mode.
