RegKing - Quick reg hacks to improve Pocket PC performance

RegKing
Contains a set of registry hacks for Pocket PC - including a hack to shorten the "wake-up" timeout to 60 seconds. This should help with battery life when the remiders wake up my iPaq and then run the battery dead...
---- The full list ----
Hacks for RegKing2002 (for Pocket PC 2002 devices)
