How to reassign the Power Button to Standby

  1. Of course, you can also use that same screen to set it to "Ask me". That causes the power switch to bring up a dialog where you can select stand-by, restart or turn-off. This is the same thing as selecting "Shut down" from the Start menu.

    I have my eo set this way, which then lets me quickly choose which option I want with a simple tap on the screen. Sometimes a full shut-down is preferable, if the unit will be in a bag for a while and avoiding battery drain is more important than a quick start-up. It also is nice to have such a quick access to the restart option for those occasions when it is needed.
