The defaults are saved on the application you choose and mark as default.
First I tried uninstalling Bedside...which then caused the default dock app to start when I docked. When I got your message, I tried re-installing Bedside and then clearing the defaults, but the "clear defaults" button is disabled So now it starts Bedside and when I exit bedside, it is showing the "what do you want to start" app. So now I have to push the exit button twice. Doh!

Two reasons: (1) I have two docks - one at home on the nightstand and one on my desk at work. Since I might dock a dozen or more times per day at the office, I don't want bedside starting every time and then me having to cancel it. In fact I want _nothing_ to start...so removing the magnet on the dock is probably the answer for this problem. (2) I've found that even with the screen settings really dark, the silly soft-button lights on the droid are too bright and nobody seems to know how to turn them off. Thanks moto!

Ideally, I would really like two different apps to start, depending on which dock it is in - bedside (with soft-button lights disabled) on the home dock and I'd like my desk dock to open a particular home screen. I'm using Home++...I need to ping them with that feature.
