Yeah, that's the sysAppLaunchCmdSyncNotify launch code. So at least
I know I'm on the right track. Unfortunately, I can't even pop up a
little dialog from that launch command because the device will then
crash :( Not very useful for debugging :( :(

In situations like that, I do this kind of thing:

        SndPlaySystemSound (sndInfo);
        SysTaskDelay (SysTicksPerSecond());
        SndPlaySystemSound (sndInfo);
        SysTaskDelay (SysTicksPerSecond());
        SndPlaySystemSound (sndInfo);
        SysTaskDelay (SysTicksPerSecond());
        SndPlaySystemSound (sndInfo);
        SysTaskDelay (3 * SysTicksPerSecond());

Then some other place, I might do this:

        SndPlaySystemSound (sndInfo);
        SysTaskDelay (SysTicksPerSecond());
        SndPlaySystemSound (sndClick);
        SysTaskDelay (SysTicksPerSecond());
        SndPlaySystemSound (sndClick);
        SysTaskDelay (SysTicksPerSecond());
        SndPlaySystemSound (sndInfo);
        SysTaskDelay (3 * SysTicksPerSecond());

Or this:

        SndPlaySystemSound (sndInfo);
        SysTaskDelay (2 * SysTicksPerSecond());
        SndPlaySystemSound (sndInfo);
        SysTaskDelay (SysTicksPerSecond());
        SndPlaySystemSound (sndInfo);
        SysTaskDelay (3 * SysTicksPerSecond());

By varying the beeps and the clicks and the timing, you can come up
with a number of patterns that are easy to recognize.  Plus you provide
amusement for your co-workers when they see you listening intently to
the Palm like it's whispering the answers to you or something.
