Hello.
Can anyone point me to an application that locks buttons (except on/off)when the unit is off, ie. so that pressing the buttons won't turn the unit on accidentally?
Thanks.

If you're using WM2003, just go to Start>Settings>Buttons, and then tap the "Lock" tab. Then you can select either "Disable the application buttons" or "Disable the record button".

you can disable them under power management or screen light settings. select or deselect allof buttons or screen taps to turn on backlight.

Where?? I can't seem to find this option on my Ipaq 3950, it would be really useful to me as well, cos I've often opened my ppc case to find my ipaq switched on.

You won't see the option unless you're running the WM2003 OS. As far as I know, there isn't anything available for PPC2002. :(
