[Ti] Can i remove Ti Modem to save battery life?

[Kynan Shook]

I wouldn't recommend it, but you could probably do it.  I doubt you'd 
save any significant power, however.  The modem should be deactivated 
any time it's not actively in use.  You'd save a lot more battery power 
by turning down the display brightness one notch, or any of 50 million 
other ways to reduce power.
