    This seems like such a simple thing, but I haven't been able to figure it out.
    How can I make my BB backlight not fade out... For instance, if I have it sitting on my desk, plugged into a charger, I don't want the screen to go black or bring up the clock.

    options->Screen/Keyboard->backlight timeout only goes from 10 sec to 2 minutes.

    There has to be another option somewhere to keep it on while plugged in, right?

    nope

    back light will only stay on if plugged in AND you enter bedside mode on the alarm clock.

    Theres also an app floating around (dont think it works with the storm yet) to keep the backlight on.

    whats that app called?

    It seems pretty dumb to me that they wouldn't have an option to keep the backlight on all the time... at least when plugged in.

    does anyone who's created any apps know if you can manually override that through the app itself?
