Waking up Windows Mobile 6 prof device

Hi, I was wondering when a WM6 Prof device is in the suspended state ie user
has hit power button but its not fully 'OFF' (just the screen and backlight
are off) are 1) services still running
2) are apps still running. I can tell they are still in memory as when you
tap the power button
the apps are still there.

If services are not running ( ie services in Service.exe) then i need to be
able to wake up a
thread (thread is blocked on an array of events most of the time anyway)in
my service to run every 30 minutes to get some data from back end server so
this would be a http request. How would i do this, i know i can set a
notification trigger to set an event but if a thread is not runing how would
it unblock on this event?

We have a Wm6 Professional service implemented in C++ , that need to wake up
every 30m ins to get some data from a server on the internet.

Thanks
