What would be interesting to know, what the difference in power consumption between full suspend (to RAM, to FLASH) and just maximum power cycling (33MHz and slow RAM refresh). Because at the end, it might not be a big difference?

I'm asking, because after all, even if you would turn of your iLiad completely, the battery usually discharge itself over time, so perhaps there is not so much difference between this normal battery-discharge or the very minimal power-consumption during power-cycling, or what do the experts think :-) ?
