I am still totally in love with this setup.

Only one annoying feature, the screen saver. I constantly have to touch the screen to see the map.

Any work around? I have yet to find a way to change or disable the screen saver.

Any ideas?

Are you referring to the backlight going off after certain time? Go to Start -Settings - System tab - Backlight and unselect that option in Batery Power tab.
Or if you are referring to Dockware screensaver, then disable it inside the program.

AD, yes I was referring to Dockware.

I could not find a way to delay start time, lets say from a few minutes to maybe half or three quarter of an hour.

Egmont, I think Dockware is pretty crap and I disabled mine completely. I know this hardly helps, but I offer the advice for free!:D

Well, you get what you pay for:p

I like a screen saver on this unit, with pictures of my trips and family while driving, is great. I don't use them on my computers, I just have the monitor turn off.

Are there others out there?

Are you sure you want to be looking at pictures while you are driving? :)

Since my unit sits on the dash (Suburban) it is at eye level and you can see it in the corner of your eye with out moving your head.

Yes, I agree you should look at pictures while driving, for that matter, not even at the map while driving.;)

Try this suggestion from Ilium Software, not sure if it will work with the oem version on the iPAQ.
