progress bar in appwidget for a playback service

问题:

I wanted to display a progress bar in an appwidget that displays playback progress from a background service. I know the appwidget supports that control, but I am wondering how I might go about updating the progress bar in a way that is consistent with good widget design (e.g. low battery consumption). The way I would normally do it in an activity would be by polling the playback on a timer. I haven't implemented this yet, so I am not even sure if it would work in an appwidget. Anyone know better than me?

Have the service update the app widget's RemoteViews when sufficient time has elapsed to make it worthwhile to update.
