At least going by the power consumption numbers that I measured directly on the battery pins in suspend.Seriously? That sounds way more optimistic than anyone is claiming. Given people are throwing out numbers like "20-24 hour idle", and I'm assuming you wouldn't wake up from RAM very often when "idle", it seems weird that that would literally third the battery life.
The reason it can't is probably that autosuspend story in distributions is not that great. They don't suspend the system to RAM soon and often enough.
On the other hand if true, and 3 days is achievable in the (near?) future with some further work on optimising suspend, then that would basically instantly resolve all my doubts.
