In this one, we'll talk about how this differs in PocketPCs. Almost everything I said about Smartphones in the previous entry is also true on PocketPCs, so make sure you read that entry before this one. Note also that, when I say "PocketPC" I'm really talking about "PocketPC Phone Edition" devices. We still sell PocketPCs that aren’t phones, but they're a shrinking market."</i><br /><br />I know some of you find the power states of a Pocket PC and Smartphone to be a tad confusing. Well, Mike Calligaro has taken the facts, quashed the fiction, and presented it all in a great article. Head over to the <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2006/08/16/702833.aspx">Windows Mobile Team Blog</a> for an insight into what drains our devices.

Sorry for an external link (I'm at home and don't have the HTML -> phpBB converter macro here; therefore, can't copy the article here now): I've elaborated on the statement of "BT units should be turned off" at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&amp;p=1151&amp;more=1&amp;c=1&amp;tb=1&amp;pb=1
