Salve rob! :) It's great that an implementation of LEDs is discussed. My problem with flashing screens is the high amount of energy that it costs. At the moment I have a SE S700i and I always have to turn the screen on in order to get to know if there are messages or emails. And blinking only two or three times is not enought because you're not looking at the screen all the time. Flashing LEDs have the advantage that they cost less energy and can blink over a large amount of time. So you just look at the LED and know "ah there is a sms or ah I got an email". In my opinion it's not much effort to integrate a LED into the hardware and it gives you a lot of options for telling the user something about the status of its phone.

We collected some ideas for the next version of the Neo and having one or more LEDs are already an idea/wish discussed here.
