I was browsing around and found this:

Black Google for Mobile Phones: Save Battery with Each Google Search

Every bit helps, right?

I agree the a black background will save you some battery over a bright white. But if you are searching, how many of the sites you go to will have a black background?

Also you can set your google background to a dark or even black image right from their website...

This is most likely spam. This does not help your battery life. Who knows what they are doing with all the entries into this. Ill continue using the official google search. Thanks but no thanks.

Wheven you have a large area of consistant color, black or otherwise, it is highly optimized. Rather than sending all the paint, an instruction to paint the screen color X in this area is sent.

A black background might save a few packets but nothing to shake the earth.
