Hmmm... /me has questions about this.  Care to give me your breakdown of 
what power you think you are using?

Going in to suspend saves approx 3-4 Watts.  Even if you only suspended 
for 1 second generating enough WLAN traffic to use 3-4 watts _above_ 
what you are already using for idle.  I'm not sure that is what would 
happen.
