Just because you see a compass icon doesn't mean it's using GPS.
GPS = satellites
Uncheck "use gps" and it won't use satellite, or the GPS chip.You still get a status icon. Ask Nokia why, not me

Would It be possible to add detection of wlan access points for rules?
A Nice feature would be the ability to switch background connections on/off.
Sure, I wanted to do this anyways. That and bluetooth.

I'm going to do this too but I want to get this in Ovi store without that feature first, it seems like something they wouldn't allow if they know about it. Btw the daemon runs as user and not root due to calendar limitations (Nokia's fault, not mine) so any commands run need to work as user. Maybe I can run a 2nd daemon later but that is getting kinda silly.

Any rule created that has a time component will have two QTimer objects created to keep track of what times the rule can potentially become active and inactive. There's also a QSystemAlignedTimer that runs every 45-60 minutes to check for relavent calendar entries, and it creates 2 more QTimers if it sees any. I'll probably change them all to QSystemAlignedTimer but since they don't fire very often the savings won't be much.
