Does anyone have this same problem?

Normally turning off the screen is like a "suspend" which will turn off all radios. The first time I found this was while coming home from work where I had used my BT GPS reciever. At 5 O'Clock it was dead. I dismissed it as maybe I left the screen on in the case. But this morning it was dead again after using WiFi yesterday. I just installed the new WiFi/BT switcher included in .50 release of Widcomm. So maybe I turned BT on.

Maybe its the WiFi? I'm not sure.
I'm having the same issues. Problem started when upgrading to A12. After the upgrade I only installed a smaller subset of the usual programs. I'm using the (fake) server trick - just in this case it ain't fake.
I have a suspect. I have turned off the "auto shutdown" of the Axim - and I think that it turns itself on during the night by some calendar event or something like that.
