S2U2-what is the purpose

I have read numerous threads about S2U2. I am thinking about installing it. I read somewhere that it can't be uninstalled. Is that true? It seems that everyone is using it for wallpaper. What is the real purpose of having this program?

It locks the screen so you dont accidentally call people ect. but it provides all the info you need off you're today screen without opeing up your ppc. like sms count, email, missed calls, time, next appointment. and it uninstalls just fine. install it. im sure you will enjoy

It can be removed if you don't like it....

I never got it either. You will still have to turn the screen on to see it, and it adds yet another step to get to your phone. It shows what you have on your today screen most likely, but you dont get this information any quicker than if you didnt have it installed. I guess if you ALWAYS wanted your phone locked, on top of pressing the power button and having the screen and all other keys lock until you press it again, its a good program.

its one of those preference things really... its nice and all, but when you think about the real purpose.. its supposed to lock the phone up like he said... in which you already have an option on your phone to do so.. also... well i mean, you simply hit the power button on the top of your touch to turn off the screen.. you cant accidentally call someone or open a program on accident.. so i never really saw the need in getting it.. unless you jus wanted to customize your phone to make it look kool, but honestly i kinda think its a pointless app

Lets not forget full screen caller ID! And any part of the program can be shut off and allow other parts to run. BOO

and i think the real locking purpose is for like when you get a call or a text and your screen turns on, s2u2 keeps it locked and shuts the screen off again.

The reason why I use S2U2 is that using the default keyguard while playing music just stops the music on my phone. S2U2 lets me listen to music just fine with the screen locked.

I manually enable S2U2 when I need it. It's not on all the time.

ive been using the program since it first came out. i was always the type of person who would have his cell phone in his pocket and my phone would jus randomly call someone, burning up all my day time mins. not only that, magnets on my cell phone cases triggered my screen to come on also.... then here it goes all over again, draining my battery and calling people, opening my apps and all. i got my hands on slide to unlock, never had to worry about these problems ever again.

To annoy people with iPhones, mostly

Seriously, the screen lock is such a PITA to use, this just works, and if you enable the dpad to unlock its simple to power on + ulock without touching the pen, or 99% of the time just power on look at clock and calendar (and weather) and it powers off 10 seconds later...
