That would be suspended.  which is sort of a largeish category. There's 
backlight on/off, wlan on/off flavors of that that use various amounts 
of power. So I guess suspended really should be 1-2W.  If anything kicks 
in the CPU then its about 3.5W.

I've had a few people recently throw out this 2W number and I want to 
make user that its not published somewhere as "the" XO power draw cause 
its not that simple.
