Is there a keyboard lock feature or is it third party software only? By locking software,I mean when screen blanks out-is there a way to keep the phone home screen from popping up by pressing any button?

do you mean besides holding the end call or holding the *z button?

Automatic Keylock at http://maniac.fschreiner.de/ will suit your needs.

Proggy is free and includes some very cool extras like configurable repeating notifications, configurable screen saver, some integration with his other free sw (cell based profile switcher, etc).

I have been using this and his SmartJournal proggy for sometime. Rock soild and better than most pay sw that i have come across!

Tried the above program, it didn't fit the bill. :/ For example, when an incoming SMS message occurs, I was able to hit hardware buttons and activate various programs. :/

For a keylock, I'm looking for a program that locks everything. Every keypress, every button, every program, the screen, EVERYTHING.. until I use that one "special" button (combo) to unlock the phone.

Any ideas on a program like this?

Yes, I'd like to have this too.... It annoys me that on the past couple smartphones I've had they keep allowing the screen to come on when misc keys are pressed, which causes the battery to drain much quicker since the phone in a case or pocket will press the keys all day....
