EVDO vs 1X battery life

[sadthai]

i'm intrigue by this anandtech.com article concerning the iphone 3g vs the iphone 2.5g battery life.

the article shows that the 2.5g iphone has significantly more battery life vs the 3g counter part.




i'm wondering if we could maximize the titan battery life by using it as 1x mode only instead of the evdo mode. now, i use my phone primary as a phone. occasionally i surf the web a bit and 1x is fine with me, so if there is significant battery life saving, i'm happy with that. whenever i tether to my laptop, i can always switch the phone back to evdo mode.
