When it's locked, it doesn't beep. It gives its usual double beep when it goes
back to sleep, but this has nothing to do with the lock beep.
We've got two different beeps working here!
Beep!

But if this is the case, why is there absolutely no difference in performance
when the unit is locked whether I have Lock Beep set to on or off? As I read
the documentation, with Lock Beep set to off and the unit locked, it should not
beep.

Exactly. That is why there is nothing wrong with it.

Yes, it has to wake up to do the locked beep.

The BookPort has always worked this way. When it's locked and a key is
pressed, it wakes up and then goes back to sleep in ten seconds. Mine did this
in July of 2003, and it still does. I don't think there's anything wrong, it's
just the way it works.

Which is my point. The buttons beep regardless of whether Lock Beep is set on
or off, so I don't think it's working correctly, is it?

Walt, Sorry if I am repeating things you know, but I don't remember the first
part of this thread. as I understand it, when lock is turned on and you press
a key, the book port wakes up. The beep afterwards is the book port going back
to sleep just as it would when you finished reading. So, the bottom line is
that if the unit is in some kind of case which keeps on pressing keys, the book
port will continue to turn itself off and on. I guess this is a bit better
than having it begin to read and never stop until the 2 key happens to be
pressed again. By the way, mine has done this since I first purchased it.

This has been the situation for so long that I honestly can no longer remember
when it worked right, but there is no difference in performance of my BP
whether I have Lock Beep turned off or on. In either case, when the unit is
locked and I press a key, it beeps after several seconds. I guess it's one of
those things that I simply never took conscious notice of and as a result, I
honestly can't say when this behavior may have started, but it's been a long,
long time.
