A quick thing to check is your ADB cable... that it's firmly in place at
both ends. Try another cable if possible, and try the other ADB port on the
S900.

There's a ton of suggestions on this problem, and I fear I'm missing some
important ones, but here's a few...

-Apple often points to non-Apple PCI cards as the culprits with wake from
sleep problems
-Make sure no apps are running when your machine goes to sleep
-The Adaptec 2906 SCSI card caused 'wake from sleep' problems, but the
latest driver fixes it
-Some claim Energy Saver was a bit buggy under 9.0, and better under 9.0.4,
and better yet under 9.1
-If you have Palm software installed, try disabling the Serial Port Monitor
-And finally, reports of reinstalling QuickTime 5 seemed to help some with
the 'wake from sleep' problem

I realize some don't relate to your system Bill, but perhaps there's an idea
or two there. It's likely that your power key going south, and the sleep
problems are related. Try another keyboard and cable to rule those two
things out.
