Hi - A good healthy suspicion! But the Power Management Unit has an RTC that is capable to wake the CPU, it should be fine. Software end isn't done AFAIK but its okay. (Maybe we don't need alarm for it anyway because the GSM unit should wake us when it wants us to do something, I don't know anything about that end I'm afraid.) On the battery life, because we didn't get the GSM unit to suspend yet and be able to wake us (Matt works on it), the only consumption figures we can talk about right now is no-GSM suspend, right now it looks like we can manage ~ 20 days like that (but it is an estimate based on measurements, not verified). - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHtC1UOjLpvpq7dMoRAg+lAJ0dIszwyMjSkUPB0skfjhN5DliLlQCfRPrh l5ySs5Zroreq4gu7y41vTfA= =V4j8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
