Yes, now that you mention it I believe I heard something like that, too...

I think the CPU should be capable of deep-sleep without problems.
Another Issue that was raised back in the hey-day of battery-life-discussion was the Linux Kernel that did not work so well with the CPU. An Upgrade to 2.6 was planned but never completed as far as I know.
I think an upgrade to 2.6 might fix a lot of limitations.

Another issue that I really haven't looked at: What buttons are capable of "waking" the CPU from sleep? Can any button press be configured to work, or only the power switch, or do none of the hardware buttons send the right sort of signal?
