I have a similar setup for an app that needs to pull data from a server at
certain times. This is not generally critical so the server stuff needs to
"fail" silently and allow the app to continue about it's business.
To do this I wrote a ServerMonitor class that wraps air.net.URLMonitor. With
URLMonitor you point it at a URL and the object will poll that URL for
availability at whatever interval you set. There is a StatusEvent that will be
dispatched whenever availability changes. All I do is listen for this event
and do things in my app accordingly.
