Exactly and this is also something that makes me crazy...The whole background connection behavior on the N9 is a crap. Don't get me wrong...I love my N9...but this is my most desired wish, that they fix this issue with 1.3.

Btw, I alsomade the experience that while syncing in the background finally started working with 1.2 (without background connection) the connection stays then on for a long time, sometimes disconnects again, but generally behaves unpredicatably. This is annoying!

The problem seems to be that in 1.2 the N9 never really undestands when its idling and should disconnect again. Something that was no problem for my old Symbian phones. There are several bug reports related to this topic and I hope fixing this is part of the "Non-Feature" update 1.3...
