Sanyo Screen

Is it possible to set the phone to turn the screen off while in a call instead of dim it? I noticed other phones with other carriers do this. It's pretty stupid if the phone can't do this.

i dont think SANYO phones can turn their screens off when on a call...I know Samsungs can shut off while on a call...but I have not been able to have my 5600 screen turn off while I am on a call....DAMN BATTERY DRAIN!!

it's thier way of making you want to buy an extended battery, it would be too easy to make the screen just turn off.
