Lets look @ the android’s Lock/Unlock utility

Now wouldn’t that look good on your PPC , well here is the first step to make that a reality its called Organic Lock, Its not the exact copy of that but its the start of something that might evolve in to a gr8 PPC application.

Screen lock/unlock utility with a sequence/pattern of points on screen for PDA / PPC running on Windows mobile. Screen lock/unlock utility with a sequence/pattern of points on screen for PDA / PPC running on Windows mobileThe app consists of 3 parts (separate programs): the lock part (Organic), the configurator (Technic) and notification register (Register).
The app works as an addition to a standard locker (and possibly any other, that properly sets lock flag in registry). It starts immediately when standard locker unlocks the screen. Then the sequence entering screen is shown, where you need to repeat the configured sequence by taping the moving shapes.
Locker does not consume any resources while screen is locked. It is only activated when unlock is initiated. Device can be automatically locked after soft-reset (configurable).

Current version is in beta stage, so chances are there might be some quirks here and there.
Would be nice if somebody tested it on various devices and reported how it performs.

Screens

Requirements
Hardware:
- no idea, but probably something relatively fast
- QVGA/Vertical only for now

Software:
- WM 6 Classic/Professional (WM 5 issues being fixed)
- GAPI (gx.dll)
- .NET CF 2.0 for the configurator (other apps are native).

Installation
Just run the .cab from you device and then configure the app with Technic.
Do not install to storage card.

How to use
Run the configurator (Technic) to configure the sequence (5-10 points), accuracy, speed and unlocker type.
Lock screen with a standard locker and after taping unlock, you need to repeat your sequence by taping the moving shapes in the unlocker screen. Letter in the top left corner shows which point will need to be entered next. After 3 unsuccessful attempts or after 15 secs of inactivity, app returns to locker screen.
End Call returns to lock screen.
In case fill like there’s a chance you will get yourself locked out of your device, there’s an option to create a special ‘panic’ file. In case you actually forget your sequence, you can copy it to storage card and unlock. Keep it in a safe location.
