You know, I didn't realize that your phone shows when the password screen
is on! Never paid attention. <sheepish grin> I have mine set to never ask
for the password, but the password is set. That way, nobody can change the
owner info, or even view it without the password, which I have always
thought was a good compromise. But now I'm thinking of changing it. I will
probably set it to once an hour or once a day. Pretty slick.

There is a program by Catamount called Timelock which allows you to configure the time lapse
when the password screen appears between every power on. That way, you can set the Newton's security to Every Power On while timelock to within 2 hrs. This means that as long as your Newt is On with any 2 hour (1 min to 12 hrs option ) window, the Password screen is bypassed.
May be useful to some people who dislike having to key in their password everytime while still offering a high degree of security.
