This is exactly what Windows Mobile allows. There are quite a few things Win
Mobile does right that the Nokia seems to have eschewed. Timed power management
profiles might be a good idea too - screensaver at work, blank screen at home
etc. for faster charging etc.
I'll raise an RFE later today.
Agree - this would be great on my nightstand and at my desk... Seems
to work when you are actively using Maemo Mapper which I usually do
via car charger in-vehicle, so there must be some way to say "keep the
