First, I love Adobe 2.0 for PPC! If you're using LE, check out PPC Reader 2.0.

One feature I love is the finely-controlled auto-scrolling capability that allows me to set the scroll rate *just right* and read my document hands-free. Unfortunately, "hands-free" means the phone (HTC Touch) thinks I'm no longer active, and the phone's screen blanking kicks in and turns the display off. I have to turn my phone on every 30 seconds or minute if I forget to touch the screen periodically as I'm reading--defeating the point of hands-free auto-scrolling. Yes, I can disable the timeout myself, but I don't want to disable it globally, just when I'm auto-scrolling.

Any chance Adobe will include in a future version, code to "disable screen timeout" when a user is in Auto-scroll? This same "disable screen blank timeout" capability is enabled with Windows Media Player so if you are watching a video, the screen does not shut down, so I know it is possible.

Thanks.
