OK i lied.. the last question wasnt my last one of the evening..
The situation arises a couple of times a week for me where the phone will be on silent on a desk infront of me and with my old k800i i could see if someone txt or called as it flashed on the screen obviously.
with the BB pearl though once the screen goes off it seems you get no visual notification of a txt if the phone is on silent.
I don't know of a way to make anything show on the screen, but the LED does flash when you have a new email, SMS, MMS, or PIN message in your Messages folder.
not so fussed about anything showing on the 'sleep' screen (although it was handy having the clock and also message notification on the 'sleep' screen on the K800i) .. but at the very least if it just woke the screen up automatically when a txt comes in that would be very handy.
