Droid Incredible Power button

This has probably asked before. If it has then I apologize. I have the Droid Incredible. It is by far the best phone I have ever had. This is the second HTC phone I have owned. My question is, is there any way to NOT have to push the power button on the top of the phone top get the phone to wake up. This is, simply put, a pain the the derriere. All I want to do is one of these options. Touch the screen, touch a menu button or the optical button. I do not want to touch the power button or the volume control buttons. I have looked on Phandroid forums and tried a variety of screen lock features, but all they do is address the screen swipe. They don't address the power button issue. Can someone help?

@walkinaz08, check out these two applications in the market...

 

Proximity Screen Off

 

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.itsme4ucz.screenoff&feature=search_result

 

Tap Tap App

 

https://market.android.com/details?id=net.maicas.android.wsleep&feature=search_result

 

Both seem to use the proximity sensor instead of a power button. I personally have not tried them, but think that this is what you are looking for...

 

 

Hope this helps!
