Hello,
I am the machine maintainer of SIMpad and I want to get rid of the 
suspending problems (oe bug 2598).
In order to get a solution integrated into Angstrom I am willing to do 
as you tell me to do.
I created a power off daemon which watches the power off button and 
suspends the device. 
I also have asked on the arm-linux mailing list about doing this in 
userland or kernel space and it seems that Russel King thinks that it is 
a good idea to have it in userland. At a long term I want to get the 
SIMpad patches going into mainline so it would be waste of code and time 
to do it in kernel space. But I am willing to do even this if you tell 
me that the Angstrom team thinks that this would be the right solution 
for this distribution.

best regards

Bernhard (mr_nice) Guillon
