* For some reason, the polling methid is much more inefficient than I thought. According to htop it caused up to 15% CPU load on some phones (e.g. Galaxy S).
The event based causes no CPU load.
Rockbox' idle CPU load is now back to 0%, while it was previously dominated by polling the call state.
* Also stop on outgoing calls (no need to explicitely pause for making a call anymore).
* Factor out the detection mechanism to separate files.

Instead implement a bit of battery monitoring. Currently it only fetches the battery level (in %) every 30s,
but it could do more like battery status, charger connected, voltage...
Theoretically, we could also exit/quit after some time of inactivity too
(perhaps not a bad idea since Rockbox puts a slight but still non-zero CPU load even if doing nothing).
Ironically, Rockbox is now the only way to get the exact battery level (at least I haven't found anything yet) on my phone :-)

the activity only attaches to the framebuffer for displaying it. An icon
in the notification area is displayed (it could be prettier I guess).
Note: Some HTC phones won't, includng mine, get enough CPU time to do background decoding
fluently, see: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9663

General state is: Rockbox is usable (plays music, saves configuration, touchscreen works too).
Problems:
- Playing music in the background (i.e. when switching to another app) doesn't work reliably, but I'm working on that now.
- no cabbiev2 (only some preliminary files for it), no other default theme.
- screen flickers sometimes if the updates are too frequent
- no multi screen apk/package
- strange behavior when a phone call comes in
The java files (and the eclipse project) resides in android/, which is also supposed to be the build folder.
I've put a small README in there for instructions. There are some steps needed after the make part, which are described there,
and which eclipse mostly handles. But there ought to be some script/makefile rules which do that instead in the future.
