-This application allows you to lower your maximum CPU speed.
+This application allows you to adjust your maximum CPU speed.
+<br><br>
+This enables you to overclock your CPU easily (only on power kernel), but of course you can also underclock the CPU if desired. Underclocking might save some battery power if you are running applications like emulators, which cause your CPU to always run at full speed when it is really not required. Please note that lowering the maximum CPU frequency does not always save battery power and is not always the best choice!

  If you want to change your CPU frequency or SmartReflex™ settings permanently, you need to edit <em>/etc/pmconfig</em>. Only edit this file if you know what you are doing!
  </li>
  <li>When the maximum CPU frequency is equal to the minimum CPU frequency the kernel might use the next frequency scaling step as the maximum frequency. For instance, if you set your maximum frequency to 250MHz the official kernel will actually use 500MHz as the maximum frequency. This is a kernel problem.</li>
  <li>SmartReflex™ is known to be unstable on some devices and may cause random reboots.</li>
  <li>Starting with PR 1.2, Nokia has disabled "VDD2 SR" in order to make the device more stable. This is why QCPUFreq only enables VDD1 SmartReflex™.</li>
- <li>On official kernels the CPU temperature is very unaccurate. On power kernels the temperature can be much more precise, if the <em>bq27x00_battery</em> module was loaded.</li>
