Auto synchronization

[#1]

Hello,
My android application has a working mobilink synchronization, but is started only with a button click. I have to make my app synchronize in a period of time and I wonder what is the best approach to do this? Maybe a service with a running timer that calls the sync or it is better to try push notification.

Thanks for the answers, I made it using AlarmManager, because the Timer has problems when the phone goes into sleep mode. The processor slows down and the timer doest'n execute as it is scheduled.
