[android-developers] Opportunistic Transfer

I have an application that wants to transfer a file to a web server
every 15 minutes. Now if in between the 15 minute intervals, a web
connection is initiated by some other application on the phone such as
web browser, would it be more battery efficient if the application
piggy backed on this connection to transfer the file? I think it would
be more efficient for GPRS but what about Wi-Fi?

If it is more efficient, how would I go about writing code to achieve
this?
