I've had my BP now for less than a week, but already love it. I too can see a need for audible feedback for lock/unlock when I'm not plugged into it. There have been times where I'd stop reading, take the ear bud out and realize I'm not going to get right back so do a lock. Then wonder, gee is it locked.
