Hey Daniel, Yes, I normally leave my brightness at 0 and the screen curtain on. I set it to 50 just now, and made sure the screen curtain is off, and still nothing whatsoever happens. In fact I have never, ever had a scrap of currency read to me in Looktel. It's not that it's "unreliable" for me, it's that it simply doesn't work at all. :)
I would have thought my phone is simply defective, and yet truthfully I don't have problems with other apps such as VizWiz and oMoby, and I've never had any complaints about the pictures in my camera roll! It's the most...peculiar thing.
