on behalf of the Suzaku WAM team report:

The IPN-localized short GRB 070124 (Hurley et al., GCN 6022) triggered 
the Suzaku Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM), which covers the energy range 
of 50 keV - 5 MeV, at 08:41:51.035 UT(=T0). 
The light curve shows two separate pulses with a total duration of 
about 0.8 seconds. The fluence in 100 - 2000 keV was 
3.1(-1.3, +0.4) x 10^-6 erg/cm2, while the 1-s peak flux measured from 
T0 was 3.4(-0.8, +0.3) photons/cm2/s in the same energy range.

The time-averaged spectrum from T0 sec to T0+2 sec is well fitted
by a cutoff power law model. 

  dN/dE ~  E^{-alpha} * exp(-(2-alpha)*E/Epeak)
  alpha       -0.19 (-0.81 +0.64), and
  Epeak         686 (-117, +197) keV.

All the quoted errors are at statistical 90% confidence level, while
systematic errors are not included.
