BlackMe is a PocketPC 2003/Windows Mobile 5/6 tool that turns the screen off while you don’t need it. It’s also possible to set a timeout to turn the screen off every time interval you select. You can use it while logging gps data (for example with WMMiniGPS), when you connect your device to the desktop to sync/recharge it, when you’re listening to music with an mp3 player, etc …

The best method to use this program is to associate a button to it (through Settings->Buttons).
When the button is pressed, the screen should be turned off. You can turn on the screen pressing the d-pad central button. Press it again to close the application or press the associated button to turn the screen off again.

I usually just hit the power button and it switches off the screen for me, the only advantage i see is the scheduled timeout option.
