One reason why I wanted to intercept the sleep mode is because
sometimes I want network connectivity for streaming music or downloading
a big file or monitoring a remote server, but with the Nokia covered (for
protection against scratches) and in my pocket while I wander around the
building.  Another application might be "war walking". :)

I think Frantisek's URL (thanks Frantisek!) answers the question --
right now, network connectivity is hard wired to shut down with the
cover closed.  Future firmware upgrades may make this more flexible.
