You don't need a screen saver, but you do want a backlight saver.
Turning of backlighting has the advantage of not just saving the
batter life but also saving the life of the backlight itself (which is
about 2 years).

You can get Backlight_Control.hqx @ apple.com in
/pub/powerbook/backlight_control
