OK it's been awhile since I had a PPCPE and I just picked up a PPC-6700 what are you guys using for setting profiles and to lock the keys so you aren't making calls all the time?

you may have something that came with the OS for locking keys; and I use PPCProfiles Pro for profiles. YOu can get it here:

It works with WM5; but has a few very minor quirks.

Seems that on Phone Edition devices the key lock is based on the normal PPC button settings. You can typically set them to only respond to the power button when the device is off. (suspend/asleep). When you want to use it, you just punch the on button. IMHO better than having to hit the unlock key and then the confirm. If a call or alarm happens the device wakes up and you have full control anyway.

Yeah I knew about that. I was looking for something that would operate like where i could lock even the power button but have it unlock if i push a combination of buttons....I find the power button gets pushed too often with the included case....

I used PPCProfiles Pro for a while. It's a very nice program--and the price is right!

I use phoneAlarm now due to the lack of the PPC's repeating notifications.
