Well it's certainly there now.
Looks ok, but if you run Sman and have it close all tasks when you shut the flip, it gives an error message, but still runs...perhaps a bug that can be worked out?
Anyhow, I don't think I'll be using this....who wants to register for a clock? :/ |

$15 is a bit much for a clock. If it were $5 I might give it a go.
Regarding the sman problem, if you take a snapshot of loaded tasks with the screensaver clock task on the list, it should stop sman from auto-ending on flip-close.

I agree. They've over priced it! |

It's quite a useful piece of software. It works in both flip modes, and confronts neither with the Tracker screensaver/lock, nor the original power saver. So far so good.
Nevertheless, it's a bit early to call it version 1.00. Look at the task list (with Tracker, SMan, etc.) when the Psiloc screensaver is running. There are five or even more instances of "Screen Saver Service", each consuming 60 or more Kbytes. Then try to switch to one of the instances on the list, see what happens.
A server must not show up on the task list, and surely not in several instances. Apparently they are not having their product beta-tested, or not by the proper people...

Looks great, works... ...well, not so great
the way how it leaves it running as multiple versions is annoying.
the idea is great, but i'd prefer it if it had a lock function, like Trackers lock scren or ScreenCover.
the digital clock, in digtal skin looks good.
if it didnt dissappear as soon as the screen is pressed, i'd use it. |

I agree. Its useless without a lock feature. With a lock l would buy it for twice the price... |

Useless..? lolll
Just because you don't use the P800 without flip... otherwise is it no problem!
Just use it as screensaver with automatic keypad locking.

I think it looks great but I am still amused that T68/T68i/T610 want to get rid of their clocks and P800 owners were really keen to get one!
definitly agree that it is overpriced

OK, I'm using my P800 with the flip and this screen saver works & the device lock does activate. The options under the Display settings under the Control Panel still apply. The only thing that bugs me is the backlight activating everytime the screen saver comes on. I want an option to have the backlight not come on.

Well Blue8300, it's useless to me. I don't see what's so funny. |

I just noticed that the colors don't rotate and position of the clock doesn't change (with the flip closed). That's not much of a screen saver. |
