How does the power consumption of the processor compare with the rest of the 
electronics in the calculator?
I can easily see the advantage of throttling back the processor speed to 
save energy, but what about the rest of the electronics?
Have you taken any measurements?  I'm assuming the majority of the power is 
consumed by the processor?

Cheers,
Alan
