[PythonCE] Running with the screen turned off

[Stephan Peters]

Hi all! Just started experimenting with Python on my windows mobile 2005
phone/pda. It has it's built in GPS receiver, so that just begs to be used.
I already managed to establish a connection to it using ceserial. Very nice
module.

But now a question pops up. I'm planning to have my program run constantly
in the background of my pda and function as a GPS logger. However, windows
powers down by default after 3 minutes. And pauzes my program along with it.
So, the big question is: does anyone know a way to keep the program running
while the screen is turned off? Sort of like the screen off function as use
by windows media player.

Thanks in advance!

Merry Christmas!
