Android looks good in that aera

I've used a couple of Android devices as my main phone over the last two years. While their early JVM's were very inefficient and chewed through the power when you were actually using them (which has since been improved greatly), their ability to not suspend on you when you're playing music or using the nav software, but also not be "mysteriously dead" when you need to use them, is awesome!

I wish I could say the same about my Ubuntu powered laptops - they're either suspending on you 10 minutes into your movie because you left the power management switched on, or are unexpectedly dead when you need them because you switched it off. I'm hoping the merge of suspend blockers will improve this situation, as enable all the money that's being thrown at building Android powered phones, in-car devices, tablets etc to broaden the range of drivers compatible with the mainline Linux kernel.
