Hi,

I have been doing a lot of playing with my iPAQ 310 and SeeYou Mobile for
PNA. *Somehow the unit is now in a mode in which I can't turn it off so that
it stays off while connected to the wall charger. *Every time I turn it off
it turns itself right back on. *If I disconnect it from the wall charger I
can turn it off and it stays off. *I want to be able to charge the unit with
the unit turned off - to preserve the life of the backlight as much as
possible.

I don't think the unit did this when it was new. *I have a customer's iPAQ
310 in hand and it will stay off while connected to a wall charger.

I must have adjusted some power setting, but I can't seem to figure it out.

Paul-

I have had geat success turning off almost all electronic devices
through the application of percussive maintenance. Simply accelerate
your electronic device towards a somewhat higher mass than the device
itself and allow deceleration to reset the aforesaid device to an
inert state.

Rebooting may be troublesome after the application of this method. Do
not neglect gathering all of the subsets of the device and
repositioning them properly before attempting a reboot.
