IMHO, the firmware is forgetting to shut some circuitry down when the device is sleeping. There have been some rumblings of a firmware update from Hanlin that addresses this problem.

There is a small amount of power consumed during sleep mode to keep the SDRAM refreshed, but that power consumption is very small compared to active state power consumption.
