If so, i wanna make a mort script to change the hidden setting as shown below...
Because, i have push mail, and aim connected ALL DAY... and i could just switch on evdo when i need it... That is IF its true 1x saves battery...
Any input?

Its my understanding that in order to maintain the higher data throughput the radio does use more power in EvDO mode.
it would make sense if you were in a "Fringe" coverage area to force it down to rxtt to improve battery life.
here is a link to a thread about modifying the NAM. You will be able to go in and manually adjust the network speed preferance. I believe its default setting is "Hybrid".

An importable tweak would be great for those who find they need it.
