Default Display and power settings?

Hi,

I'm curious at what display and power settings you use. I'm using an Ipaq 3950 with a Navman 3450 sleeve

I find the backlight goes out too quickly. What would be the longest you would recommend the backlight stay on for?

Could I also get some suggestions of whatever settings you think should be altered? what about stand-by or power settings?


Thanks

I leave my backlight on all the time. I'm usually not far away from my cradle or another charging method so I never run out of power.

Leaving the backlight on won't cause any problems with burn in on the screen?

Thanks

No, the screen in a PDA uses TFT technology...burn in was only associated with CRT and rear projection based systems.
