Tech Writer: Recognition for the technical writers of AFF - Issue reason: Outstanding work on the FG ICC issues. Technical Contributor: For members who share their technical expertise. - Issue reason: The insane amount of work he has put into the Falcon FG ICC is unbelievable. He has shared everything he has done and made a great deal of it available to us all. He has definitely helped a great deal of us with no personal gains to himself.

Numbers for those who like 'em: (screen is off in wake mode in both tests as it uses more power than my meter can read accurately)...

My FDM with a GPS add-on and USB hub and stick - 278mA wake, 6.7mA sleep.
The Terry FDM+GPS mod, but missing the BT chip - 264mA wake, 10.4mA sleep.

So I've increased the sleep power consumption by 50% by not powering down the SD components. Say my battery normally dies in 12 months for not driving the car - it would now go at ~8 months. Meh.
