Well, it is certainly technically feasible to do - even both ways.
Maybe a CLI utility for starters.

Check out the n900 device module in modRana source:

Especially these lines:

http://modrana.org/trac/browser/trun...e_n900.py#L150

In a nutshell, you have to connect to the MCE through DBUS and pause blanking every <60s for another 60s.
