Actually, you can get that as a widget:
+ (bottom right) or long press on empty screen space
Widget
Settings
Mobile Network
I have one desktop (right term??) devoted to power and other useful settings.
It has that one, Mobile (Network), and from the same Settings sub-menu, Airplane, and 4G - and at the top, the Power Control from the Widget menu.
Then I went + -> Shortcut -> Settings and also put there Accounts & sync, Battery Use, and Wi-Fi.
Wi-Fi on/off is in the Android Power Control Widget, but this shortcut gives me faster access to Wi-Fi setup if I want to change or enter a new WEP key or something - it only saves a second or two - and I'm using the Wi-Fi battery during that time, so why not?
Account sync'ing isn't that big a deal, but I thought I'd like to keep that off the radio when I don't need it and this makes it easier to get to. (I'm still not 100% clear on the sync'ing tool in the Power Control widget does.)
Along with that I have LCD Light (picoly) and No Lock (BoD) from the Market.
No Lock has nothing with battery power - it has to do with my energy levels. When at home or anywhere safe, I unlock the phone so that if it's asleep, I don't have to do Power -> down-swipe -- just hit one of the volume keys and I ready to go.
LCD Light lights up the camera LEDs like a flashlight - this drains the phone, but cuts down on my energy getting in the door when someone forgets the porchlight.
PS - I think four of these sort of widgets were on the Sprint install, on the screen next to the "Favorites" widget. I blew them off and made my own screen where Bookmarks used to be.
I already know how to find most things without a bookmark widget.
PPS - If I ever spent a day NOT hanging out at the Market or looking up favorite music vids on YouTube, I'd have some clue about how long my battery lasts.
New toy and all that.
But I just realized - better go find some kind of backup tool; I don't want to repeat all of this for the 2.2 upgrade. I didn't mind the 2.1 upgrade on my Moment because I didn't have all that much customized.
The Evo is Evo-ly
forcing me to play around and explore the rich configuration possibilities!
