Actually, why you'd want a screen saver for a PB escapes me. The life on
the screens is relatively short, and Apple tells you to turn the screen off
(i.e. sleep) when it is not being used for a long while. The only one that
I use is a Cdev that turns off the backlighting after a specified period of
time, to save the battery.
My $.02 worth.
