What does the "lock key" actually do?

Does the lock key do anything other than lock the keyboard?

For example, does it play some kind of power saving role?

Can you change the battery level turn off ?

When the battery level reaches around 20 per cent, the BB automatically turns itself off. is it possible to change that level? I can't find it anywhere in Options.

What does "standby time" mean?

What exactly is "standby time"?

Is it the time your battery will keep its charge if the BB is turned off entirely?

Or is it the time it will keep a charge if the BB is "on" but not being used?...

I thought if you werent actually using the Torch and it was simply turned on, the battery life was supposed to be good for five or six days.
