I was under the impression that, in normal operating mode, the GSM radio is in a low-power state. That's why you have "talk time" versus "standby time" in mobile device battery life specs -- when a call begins, the radio stays in a high-power-draw state until the call ends. So, the question is: with an open-but-quiet Internet connection on a carrier data network, how much power draw is there from the GSM radio? There's also the scenario of the device being on WiFi instead of GSM, but that's probably not as frequent. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 1.4 Published! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
