True.

Well, if you have a truly embedded device then likely you don't care
about this at all since the applications will work together much closer
than on a desktop system. Also, you likely have much stricter
requirements in that each application *must* be able to do exactly steps
1/2/3 before the system is suspended. Also, suspend will likely be
*much* faster too.

If it's pseudo-embedded like Nokia's N770/800 then you can very well run
things like hal to handle it.
