Hey Arjan, I am not sure I can use the same event for detecting display off. 
Let's say I wrote an analog clock MeeGo application, and it is running in the 
foreground. When display is off, the analog clock should not attempt to update 
UI.

Qt (Quick) will give your application an event for this; it's the same 
event you get when your application is no longer visible on the screen.
