Ok, this is annoying the heck out of me. I have a CF GPS device (haicom 303 yadda yadda).

Prior to A12, when I put my pda into standby the power to the CF would be removed and the gps turned off. Now with A12 , I go into standby and the power is not turned off so the GPS drains my battery flat in no time at all.

I wonder if this is why people ar ehaving so much trouble with power drain - peripherals are not being turned off properly with A12.

I'm considering going back to A06 now...
