Sometimes I just want to see the current time but when the N900 is locked I have to first unlock it (5 taps and 1 to confirm) to see the clock.

Can that screen be changed to display the date/time?

Also useful would be an option to display owner information like name, email address: In case I lose the N900 and it is found, the honest finder has a chance to hand it back to me. Btw. this was implemented on the Psion palmtop computers.

You can check the current time and date by taping on the power button.

Yeah and also credit card and social numbers


seriously though...do you think some one would return it ? good luck with that

as for the the info as others mentioned if you hit power button when screen is off it displays time and date..if you dont see it probably you've installed some crappy theme

Whats the difference ?
if he locks the screen, his device is also locked, no ?
or if his device is locked you have to lock screen separetly ?

I am always confused with these two things .

Device lock is the one where you have to type a PIN to unlock.
