Hi

A lot. Mirko posted some measurements I did some time ago after
implementing suspend:

 State              | Power consumption  |
- --------------------|--------------------|
Under full load     | 160   mA           |
Idle black screen   |  94.5 mA           |
Idle white screen   |  92   mA           |
Idle colored screen | 104   mA           |
Display off         |  52.5 mA           |
Suspended           |   9.8 mA           |
