  Axim uptime improved

Looks like the slashdot-effect traffic is finally starting to cool down. As a follow-up, given this comment the Axim uptime and usability has dramatically increased. Basically, if you go into Settings > Light & Power > Suspend after, and set it to "never", the panics mostly go away. Looks like they weren't kidding when they said suspend was broken.

Also, a slight rant from something I've learned from this heavy traffic experience. If you run a professional site dedicated to a certain field with a professional looking interface, then you should probably be smarter than to steal bandwidth from others (especially smaller non-commercial websites). In this case, a couple sites (mobi-mania.com and mypdacafe.com) both put my axim pic on their front page-- meaning that for every hit their site got, I too got one for 40K. The term "netiquette" sounds somewhat antiquated by now, but come on guys. Host your own images if you're gonna put them on the forefront of your site. Many thanks to http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com for their courteousness.
