Doesnt it already do that - I know that in the middle of the night I
used to get regularly awakened by a "shfffft" sound from the Fr as the
battery ran out - oh wait, you mean before ...
:)
Its actually a good idea - I use a couple of perl scripts to flash the
leds in various colours/rates to indicate charge. Doesnt help when shut
down though. Perhaps a cron job to wake every hour and check the
charge, then go back to sleep? Does cron work on the FR these days?
