I think the sleep mode in general is still not what it should be.  
My TiBook successfully wakes up maybe 50-60% of the time, I've gotten to where I don't even
use sleep mode anymore.  I thought I had it working a few weeks ago, but that was a victory 
announced prematurely. I does now work better than it used to, but like I mentioned above, 
crashes the system 40-50% of the time leaving me no option but to power down and reboot. (not good!)
>From now on I just give it the old "halt" command, and boot it back up when I need it.  I must say 
that as much as I love YDL 3.0, I do miss being able to just close and open my lid at anytime
and have quick access by simply opening up my Powerbook. (I might have only rebooted OSX once every few weeks!)

If anybody has any suggestions, similar experiences, or especially FIXES, please let us know!
