Yes, that's true but for what I'm thinking, I would not need a "smooth" transition, just flashing on-off at a pre-dertimined brightness setting as an alert rather than a "prettyness" thing.
Comming back to the original topic, one feature which I like from the LED API is that the LED can be turned off easily under various conditions where the blinking green LED can be annoying (eg when you go to bed and leave the BB on the bedside table).
