I'm not sure I understand the point of a screen-saver for a PPC or PPCPE hopefully the are meant for when in the cradle. Still quite expensive for software that does so little.

I thought LCDs period, whether on Pocket PCs, notebooks, or LCD monitors, didn't need screen savers. Isn't burn-in only an issue with CRTs?

With LCDs, it's more an issue of image persistence rather than image burn-in. The former is usually reversible.

Well, they picked a gorgeous image and from what I can see on the link looks to be good quality but then I'm viewing from my PC not a PDA.
