Description:
deltaLock locks your Pocket PC's screen and buttons while it's in your pocket playing music or doing whatever would require it to stay switched on.
To lock your screen simply launch deltaLock and your screen will either turn black or off, depending on the features of your display driver.
To unlock your screen again, press and hold down two hardware buttons. The default IDs of these buttons are 195 and 198, which correspond to the "Windows" and "OK" buttons of a HTC Blue Angel but may vary with different hardware.
deltaLock is distributed under the GPL, so you might also consider it freeware.
To install, download the binary below, extract the zip file, then run the included cab on your Pocket PC.
