Thank you all for your answers and welcome, no I wouldn't want a complicated solution, but yes I would most of the time know if I loaded the last page for more or less than 10 minutes ago (I changed the optimal 30 minutes to 10 minutes to try). Many of the early digital television boxes were made just like that, impossible to know if off or on. I must also admit that I know the 912 better by manual and forum than by use, so when I had read in the manual that the LED indicator was "solid green - power consumption" I expected it to be so until it went off to sleep, but in fact it stops consuming the amount of power necessary to trigger the green LED a long time before sleeping off.

There's a sticky post about adding something as a sleep image, but without adding anything there are two apps that would be nice as sleep apps.
The clock app which is very nice in full screen but the clock would use power every minute, so I expect the clock app is no good candidate.
The calendar app would at least only have to get updated every 24 hours so power drain would stay low. But I expect the ratio difficulty/usefulness would be too high, so I will do as everybody else and display nice drawings or similar, after all I'm really surprised how good images are displayed on the 912.
