I have recently purchased an iPAQ 2490 to replace my Dell Axim X51 that died.

On the Axim there is an option to do a complete power off - you simply hold the power button for a while - 2 or 3 seconds I think - and the unit powers off completely. Is there such a feature on the iPAQ 2490? I've tried pushing the button but the thing keeps coming back off standby for the ActiveSync even if it's not connected.

I have applied a 'cheat' found on another forum in relation to setting a new ActiveSync server and then setting the update to manual - I wait with baited breath to see if this solves the powering up issue.

But I'd still like the option to completely power off.

Is there anyone that can advise me about this?
