I have left mine open a few times, and it is certainly bothersome. I would like a user-configurable alarm. I would want mine to be progressively more irritating, like an alarm clock.

I was just about to post a request for the same app. I always forget to shut the lens cover - it's only a matter of time before I really damage my lens.

Yep, +1 for a great idea. It's little ideas like this and Headphone Daemon that iron out the niggles and improve N900 experience.

Great idea! Coming from an N95 8GB, I always seem to forget the N900 has a lens cover.

Personally a big red bar across the top until it's closed - unless camera app is running.
I think a little notification icon showing a little camera whenever the lens cover is open would be ideal IMO.

This is by far one of the most brilliant application idea!

Have a notification icon shown all the time when cover is open, then if you lock your phone, have it give small vibrate or beep sound.
