This app will turn on the backlight of your m505 every time you turn your Palm on.

This app differs from the "official" Palm app in several ways:
-There is never any user interface. It just works, and doesn''t need to be configured.
- It is much smaller (under 1Kb).
- It turns on the backlight everytime the m505 is turned on.

There''s no icon to clutter up your launcher.

This is not a hack! It uses the Notification Manager introduced in Palm OS 4.0. It is safe to run on any Palm Powered device - but won't do anything unless it is an m505.

You can always turn the backlight off by holding the power button for 2 seconds.
Holding the power button for 2 seconds again turns the backlight back on - just like you expect it to!

If you decide you don''t like the app you can just delete it and your Palm will revert to its original operation.

I found myself tuning on the backlight of my M505 nearly every time that I used it. Now it comes on by itself. A very practical program.

This is, in my opinion, the ULTIMATE m505 backlight utility! And to think, he does it all in LESS than 1k of RAM!
