My big problem is that I want to know for how long the Palm has been in sleep mode. My idea was to get the TimGetSeconds when the Palm goes to sleep and the do the same when it returns..... The problem for me is to know when the device enters sleep mode...... I would be a big help for me if you have any idea!!
