Is this just marketing - or does the phone actually do this?

I noticed on http://www.sliderstyle.com that the slider has the time displayed across the screen. When my phone is idle it dims... but the background is still there - it doesn't change over to the time - is this possible? or something that just makes the phone look cool on TV?

that was the alarm going off, when the alarm goes off it says the time all big, but thats it

the phone doesn't do that, its for marketing their little time based mini videos

On sliders that aren't virgin mobile the time can be set as the screensaver.

Yeah, that sucks! I'd rather have the time as a screensaver, instead of the crappy built in ones!

USCellular sells sliders and I think bell mobility in canada. Verizon and some other US carriers will be selling sliders in the near future I believe. VM just happens to be the most popular company to sell the slider right now.

And yes the time for a screen saver is a bonus.

I have a Slider through Cellular South, and i have the time as a screensaver, and yes the ringers SUCK bigtime, plus i have no way of getting new ones, i have tried using GAGIN but it won't work for me. I don't know what else to do tho.

I use the digital clock on mine, now i dont need to wear my watch anymore

theres also an analog clock.

Is there a way to have the backlight come on when u press a button but the screensaver not disappear?
