Paul,

When this same thing happened to my BookPort, I discovered it was =
because I didn't have my clock set.  Once I set the correct date and =
time the sleep timer started working right again.

Hi, Larry. I use my bp when exercising. I have my sleep timer set for 30 =

minutes. I exercise for 30 minutes having my eliptical set for this.=20
However, when the machine beeps, I still walk slowly for a minute or =
two. I=20
haven't seen the sleep timer go off in a long time. Even before this =
beta,=20
it didn't seem to work.
I think the last time I saw it work was before I installed a beta that =
had=20
the notetaker, but am not sure of that. However, One would think it =
should=20
go off within a minute of the 30 minute time length.
