[Bf-python] Polling a device in Bpy?

[Florian Lier]

Hey everyone,

I need to know if its possible to poll a device constantly in a 
py-script like this

pseudo code
----------------------------------------------
if button1 state = "down":
    
poll.mydevice(cube.setLocation(mydevice.valA,mydevice.valB,mydevice.valC))
    Blender.Redraw()
else
    print "No data avail"
----------------------------------------------

Is there another apporach? Like looping parts of the script?
The problem is, functions like while(true) or for x in range(10000000): 
sleep(0.5)
freezing the script, thus Blender too.

Thank you, cheers Florian
