The power consumption will remain the same regardless of your setting in the Location screen. The GPS isnt active all them time when its turned to "public". Its only active when an application requests its use. SmartPhoneTracker is a fantastic app, I use it as well. If you leave your location set to public, you will notice no more battery drain than before.

theoretically thats how it is supposed to work, but then a lot of the things with the 800w haven't worked like they're supposed to work. There's a lot of discussion at treocentral about the gps and its battery use when supposed to be off. I'm not saying you're right or wrong, but that I've noticed increased battery life by making sure the gps was turned off, and so have a lot of other people.
