Default Request: light up home button

Since there is no led that can be set to flash to garner attention for any reason - new email, etc., is there an application that can be set to light up one of the ' hard' buttons given certain criteria?

If not, does anyone feel like writing one?

Awesome idea. I would give a dev several beers for such an app.

What is XDA?

Cool light up buttons

home button light up = missed call/or phone call when screen is sleep, menu button = missed text, back button = missed email! would be very nice and also include options for different flashing patterns!
now where is 2.2 so hopefully we can disable this haptic feedback annoyance?

I've made an app called StreakLED (its in the development forum) but it only works for SMS messages atm. I will add missed call and email notifications soon but I've broke my USB cable so I can't do much untill I get a new one!
