Well, the OP is talking about the LED "blinking for Phone service" like the old 650 did. It would blink whenever in a Sprint area.
So that is different than what Bruce may someday look at which is how to control the LEDs for Emails/SMS, etc to have them blink when you have a new message (they do already if you use his PhoneAlarm). He has not mentioned if he'd get it to blink for service. Either way, I wouldn't hold your breath on that program! He's way too busy with PA 1.60 beta, his screenLock program and PhoneFilter.
Now it's off by default for 2 reasons:
1) It's annoying. Lots of people asked about the 650 how to turn that off, so much so that software was created for Palm OS to shut it off and Palm listened.
2) believe it or not: battery. Sure it's 1 LED blinking, but over one battery charge it does consume juice. Even Mike Calligaro (in charge of WM5 development noted this)
