Ok thanks, I reread it, that seems to be the case! I hope the seconds field is honored along with ns. WinCE had a bug where they used a long. If latency made your call for a small interval occur after the interval had elapsed, you slept for 19.5 minutes instead (nearly a full count). Combining the ns with a second counter should be enough bits to avoid that.
