Tom.

an idea i have heard people talk about, but never seen implemented is a smart 
timeout for dimming/blanking.

start with an initial timeout of 30 seconds.
after the timeout has elapsed, have a special period of maybe 5 second.
if the user pokes the screen in this special period, then they probably did not 
want the screen to blank (maybe the are reading or watching something), so 
increase the timeout.
if they did not poke the screen in the special period, then they were happy 
with the blanking, so shorten the timeout.

have limits at each end eg, so it can't go below 10 seconds or above 5 mins
