BINGO!!!!

I find the whole subsystem for radio based communication between apps/widgets problematic - very reminicent of the early days of the facebook widget on the N97.

I have noticed that the problem is that apps don't turn on AND off the roadios based on their sync schedule ( so they leave the system pinging awayeven if they are not using the radios). Also, and this is the big problem, apps and widgets dont "sleep" when the radios are shut off. So you may have shut the radios off but the apps and widgets just keep waking up looking for a connection.
