konttori has written an app, transitioncontrol, which will disable the animated transitions. See http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=30936.

Yes, but you won't save battery (much) by turning transitions off. IMO, the transitions in Maemo 5, by default, are more than just eye candy -- they really do indicate what's happening very nicely.

Whatever you do, this phone is made for browsing so it would make sense that its battery life isn't going to be that long. I'm actually thinking about buying another battery.

What do you think: How much energy could be saved if you can disable non required animations and how hard is it to implement?
