On my system (HP 6710b) when idling, powertop says:
Wakeups-from-idle per second : 589,6 interval: 10,0s no ACPI power usage estimate available
Top causes for wakeups: 63,0% (421,7) <interrupt> : PS/2 keyboard/mouse/touchpad 12,4% ( 83,1) <interrupt> : yenta, HDA Intel, i915@pci:0000:00:02.0 9,0% ( 60,4) <kernel IPI> : Rescheduling interrupts 6,2% ( 41,2) <interrupt> : extra timer interrupt 1,6% ( 11,0) <interrupt> : libata 1,6% ( 10,6) <interrupt> : iwl3945
sucks
