Can you lock the scroll with a PIN?

Hi

Is is possible to set the tablet so you have to enter an unlock pin before you can use the device as with mobiles etc?

Cheers.

I don't think this is possible, had a good search through the menus and online, can't find anything unfortunately.

I know this is quite an old thread, but:

YourKey Auto-Lock

Will autolock the scroll and let you setup a pin based on anything: numbers/icons,etc

Jummy thanks for the suggestion however looking at the feedback the app has got in the marketplace I think I am going to chicken out and give this one a miss ;-)

Just thinking the same, the app has got very poor feedback, just wondering if the security apps pattern /pin lock features could be ripped from a froyo build and then applied?

I'm using alarm clock atm which funnily enough actually has a HTC style lock feature (Even locked me out of the scroll for a while when I forgot the gesture pattern for it)
