Homebrew developer Torch gave us a quick heads up on his popular Hold+ program, which is now on version 3.1. Hold+ is a plugin that'll help your unit save on some battery power.

This version has several new features and fixes. Here's the changelog from Torch:

Changelog v3.1

Reduced CPU usage by delaying longer in main loop. Since v3.0 the main loop doesn't do much so it needn't run as fast as before. This *should* alleviate problems with the battery icon.
Now its not possible to accidentally press 'other' buttons in hold mode while holding Select button. Ex: If you are holding Select + VolUp to increase volume, and you accidentally press X, the X button will not have effect.

Changelog v3.0

Completely overhauled the plugin to work using only the SysCon functions based on Booster's example.
The prevention of accidental suspend was changed to Booster's method as that is more efficient.
In Display Off mode, pressing the Screen button to return to normal no longer causes the firmware's internal brightness variable to become one step higher and the original screen brightness.
Added the ability to use some of the buttons while in hold mode, by holding the Select button first.

You can also visit our forums for more information on the program.

Thanks to Torch for the tip!
