Another question is why do you want to poll the same device at
different intervals? The processor is already woken up so it makes sense
to do as much as possible instead of going to sleep. In your case
200/700 for every 1400ms interval you wake an extra time to poll
switches so unless polling switches takes very long time it is better to
combine them together (and into one input device, probably).
