    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.

    Not a good idea, other apps can use the camera (or just the flash led, like in the case of the flashlight).

    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!

    Well i couln't have said this better myself. We just have to take in notice that while screen may lock itself, you then just put the phone in your pocket and you won't touch the lock. But i bet the approximity sencor will help here, as someone already suggested.
