Great.

That will be really extra mega interesting!

I took a look at the PMU datasheet yesterday and it was saying ~50uA in
suspend for itself IIRC.  I wasn't certain that the 250uA (not 220, my
error) figure for selfrefresh is all we could expect for the CPU SDRAM.
    Well we have to have PMU and SDRAM powered, really we didn't need
much else in a really minimal suspend.

Things like WLAN we have to rely on their powerdown, I don't know the
figure for them.  But it seemed that if we were Gods and we did every
little thing right (with GSM and everything OFF), we could imagine to
maybe see Vb suspend current ~1.0mA say?  It suggests there are some
things to find still.
