is there something like a screensaver on PPC devices? Or do ppl rather tend to simple turn them down or do something like hibernate to save batteries?
thanks for answers.

I've actually written a screensaver package for PocketPC's, called PocketCandy. As Matt said, it's just really eye candy, since the screens on PocketPC's don't necessarily suffer from screen burn probs. Most of the screensavers I've ported to CE are from XLock and XScreensaver in UNIX, so the source for those screensavers is under GPL, and has been made available on my site.
There's also another screensaver package out there I think called ScreensaverCE. Both that package and PocketCandy can be found on Handango, just do a search for "screensaver".

I found an utility for screensaver on PPC!
If you are a developper and you are using a network card, than you should know that it won't go off by itself :) So, when I forgot to close it on my desktop at work, it should be usefull to have a ScreenSaver ^_^
If someone else have another idea where it should be usefull, tell me, I want to know :)
Maybe I'll write a screensaver program in my spare time lol.
