Have you tried Pocket PC Screensaver (http://www.wincecity.com/software/pocketpc/Pocket-PC-Screensaver-2001-5-22-ce-pocketpc.html) and/or PocketCandy (http://www.pocketpc.cz/en/software.shtml?ID=505)?

Has anyone been successful in getting PocketCandy to work? I can't seem to figure it out. The program installation is very messy... Any luck?

So you got it working? Can you post a screenshot or two?

There's not much to see, but here's a shot I just took (with ScreenSnap, which I just downloaded :)).

I can't seem to get it to work! I'll reinstall and try again.

Well, I finally got it to work... and I am QUITE impressed. It is an ACTUAL Pocket PC screen saver, no if-ands-or buts. Usually people call a utility that dims the screen or something a "screen saver" but this is in fact the one we are all familiar with. George Andre, developer of PocketPalm, also created this screen burn utility (http://discussion.brighthand.com/showthread.php?threadid=27576) so you can check if your screen is suffering from screen burn at all. It seems that the rumor of a Pocket PC screen not being "burnt" is false, it can be burnt, just a different type of burn (crystalized).

Be careful if you turn off your PPC with the screensaver running. I have had a couple of times when the screensaver wouldn't return control when I turned the unit back on, and I had to soft reset.

Thanks for the heads-up.
