No I don't think so... during suspend the CPU core and memory is powered
down, and the PLLs are down too.

You can get LCMs with internal framebuffer, in this case it can continue
to display; we could wake briefly once a minute to update it.  But as
you say it is only useful in transflective mode since we can never
afford to run the backlight in suspend.  So I guess this kind of
decision is all about the LCM.
