    Just Gave Birth to my Droid--Simple Question

    Is there a way to keep the screen from turning off when it's in the cradle? I see how to turn off the screen timeout, but I want it to timeout when it's not on the cradle charging.

    Lite setting profiles should do that and it's in the market.

    If you have the official Motorola Media dock the screen will go into "Media Mode" with a big clock and a couple of shortcuts. If you are using a different "cradle" you can load a program called "Dock Runner" which will force it into that mode.

    I'm not aware of anyway to change it, though you can hit the little house icon and get back to a landscape version of your home screens.

    EDIT: I stand corrected, but it's not easy: custom droid dock themes!
