I don't have an N86, but I did a quick search on Google, and I found the following answers on the web page: http://discussions.europe.nokia.com/t5/Nseries-and-Symbian-Smartphones/Nokia-N-series-N86-power-saving-mode-can-i-do-it-on-purpose/td-p/534344
as it says in the user guide on p.25: "To save power, activate the power save mode. Press the power key, and select Activate powersaving. To deactivate it, press the power key,and select Deactivate power saving. You may not be able to change the settings of certain applications when the power save mode is turned on." it goes into power saving mode, when the battery is very low on its own so it can get you through until you can get to a charger. its actually a really cool feature. it also is present on the n85. I'm not sure, but I hope this helps. BTW, I couldn't quickly find any documentation on what exactly this feature disables, but I would assume it would turn off any radios, such as bluetooth and wifi. It may dim the display and have the screen turn off more quickly. It also sounds like some power hungry features of some applications are disabled. This information may be documented somewhere on the web that you could find with Google. It may also be in the documentation for the N86. Another alternative would be to just enable it when you need it and figure out through tiral and error what you're losing when this mode is activated.
