Depending on your IT setup, most Windows Mobile Business users have to endure a protection measure that actually locks their device after a certain time.

It is a nuisance when your Smartphone keypad lock when you are in the middle of a call? Making it so that you can not access your Smartphone until you unlock the keypad.

or your Windows Mobile device going to sleep while you are relying on your GPS for navigation?

to unlock, you have to retype the password every time your Windows Mobile device is locked? Resulting in applications being stopped and losing your work?

Hmm... as an IT admin myself I'll be adding this to the "do not allow to install" policy. While not likely to stop a serious hacker the password policy is designed to be the first line of defence and on a business device should not be tampered with. Out our place installing this would be classsed as a discinplinary offence.

I was thinking much the same thing there wavey. Now a version of LockMeNot that can only keep the lock off when certain programs are running, so that the device doesn't lock during calls or when using GPS, should be acceptable to some companies. Others I'm sure wouldn't even tolerate that.

Agreed but I don't think that this tool is designed for the corporate market?

Sounds like it is to me!
