Hi,

I'm trying to get a definitive answer to this question:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3814852/android-when-using-locationmanager-requestlocationupdates-do-i-need-a-wakelock

Assuming that I receive an RTC_WAKEUP alarm in a broadcast receiver
and hold a wake lock until I have called requestLocationUpdates, is
there any need to retain the wake lock to continue to receive updates
in a timely fashion?

My guess is that there is not, as having to retain a wakelock would
cause all kinds of problems for long running location checks, but an
authoritative word from a platform developer would be good to have as
the documentation is completely silent on this topic.

Thanks!
