Default How to switch off the GPS inside the PPC

Erel,

I wrote an application which sends the coordinate and speed via sms when the speed reaches certain value.
However, I don't need a continuous monitoring. All I want is the GPS check the speed every 15 minutes and if the speed exceeds the limit, it will send the sms.
How to turn of the GPS during the idle time before the next 15 minute time elapses?
I find my PPC battery drains out very quickly when my application runs. I guess the cause is from the GPS being turned on and receiving satellite signals continuosly.
Please enlighten!
