It certainly looks a lot like s2ram to the user.

Now, your PC wakes up periodically in s2ram, too; but it is keyboard
controller that wakes up, not CPU, so you do not know.

On Zaurus, you do not know, either; nothing visible happens and
userspace is shielded from these details.

Should user really have to know if battery charger is implemented on
keyboard controller or on main cpu before he selects which interface
to use?
