Hi Todd,
i my project the customer wish to see the battery level in nearly every
form. I have used/use SysBatteryInfo to get this info (and to test if the
SPT is in the cradle). But there is/was a problem: if you call
SysBatterieInfo many times (as i have done; every 10 seconds) you get a
(memory?) problem (i don't know if this is a PalmOS or SymbolPalmOS-problem;
I get this info from Symbol england and USA). After same days the SPT locked
(you can't do anythings with it) and you have to put out the batterie and
put it in again (no reset needed!). It looks like the SPT freezes (same with
display on!) and the only PowerOnButton is a batterie out-and-in.
So i changed the cradle-check to HrwDockStatus (every 10 seconds), and call
SysBatterieInfo only every 15 minutes (or more). So far there was no problem
with the program, but i wish to change the SysBatterieInfo to
HrwBatterieLevel (if there is no memory-problem with this one). So i have to
know what the return of HrwBatterieLevel is.
