@Ripplinger: The hard-poweroff on long-long-press is not something I'd recommend relying on a regular basis as a "please turn off" button.

It's basically a low level power cutoff, which may not play very nice with the software and the storage layer/filesystem.

(i.e., only use it when you *have to*, i.e., a crash/deadlock).
