Thanks hackbod, that worked great.
One more question though: I'm acquiring my wakelock in an activity, as
well as attempting to release it in the OnDestroy() function of the
activity itself. Is there a good way to destroy the activity
programmatically? It doesn't appear to be done automatically from what
I could tell, unless I use Process.Kill();.
Thanks again!
