Default 3800 3900 Battery White Paper

Has anyone already mentioned that HP recently released a most excellent Battery White Paper for the 3800 and 3900 series IPAQ ????

Default Does my iPAQ wake up at midnight?

Hi

Thanks for this post. I downloaded the PDF and it was interesting reading. In particular if I am reading the paper correctly my iPAQ wakes up at midnight updates the calendar and tasks and goes back to sleep again depending on auto turn off settings. I recall a number of posts from iPAQ owners thinking their device woke up in the night - is it true. I'll try and check next time I'm up late.

Martin

Moreover, it's common to all PPC devices, not just iPaqs.

Default It's actually pretty funny...

Yeah, all the pocket PCs do it...

I have a Toshiba e550g, 3765, 3835, and two 3955 (one for my wife). The 3955s have the Symbol WiFi card...when they "wake" up at midnight...I can hear the cards being recognized by the PPC (it makes a laser sound). What's even funnier is when you place them together side by side and at midnight they all turn on (within seconds of each other)...it reminds of of those "cuckoo" clocks...
