I'll tell the truth and let everyone know that I thought the blinking lights on my first PDA phone were pretty cool...right up until I got in bed while the phone was blinking away on the night stand in both blue and green...and at that point I realized there was no way to turn them off without turning off the function they are indicating. This is even worse if driving at night and trying to use a bluetooth headset. The LED is so distracting that I would try to hide the phone under something or put it in the door so I would not see the darn light blinking.
I think there is good reason to have blinking LEDs on these devices. Indicator lights let me know what is going on with my phone at the time. If I have a new message it blinks orange. If I hav eBT on it blinks blue. As long as there is a signal it blinks green as well. Not to mention the other indications they can and do provide. They do not need to be as bright as they often are and they should certainly have an "off" setting. It shouldn't be mandatory that my device annoys me as much as it helps me.
