I think the next thing I'll work on is power management. It took a while to get the screen to stay on. It's easy to turn just the backlight off, but I know on some devices, that renders the screen unreadable. If I just let the phone manage the power, I think it may suspend the app entirely after a few minutes of power off. I also think it behaves differently when you hit the screen off button yourself vs letting it shut itself off. The emulator is a bit lacking when it comes to emulating power features. Anyhow, I'll see what I can put together to allow for configuring power settings.

I do recommend you bring a power cord with you this weekend if I don't get the power stuff finished. Not all phones will make it a few hours with the screen on!
Ah, I see you have rendered my power button useless while it's running hehe ... good call working on this next

I can still just goto power settings and run the backlight down though while it's running, so I think I could probably get through a tourney. If you can't get the power thing figured out, you could just put it in the release notes to tell guys/gals to do this in order to get through a round. But I do have to say that if you could hit the power button and still have it run and beep in the background that would be a much better option
