Wait, wait. We're talking underlying data format here.
Are you saying that serializing something to JSON (or whatever you fancy here) vs. to XML .. saves battery?
I mean, XMPP is certainly not the battery friendliest tech right now (elsewhere people discuss push extensions for example), but .. that's not related to the use of XML.
I'm saying pushing a verbose format like XML over mobile radio signals consumes more battery.
