That is some impressive battery life!!
How about getting an external power pack such as the Nokia Extra Power DC-11K ?
I have one and it has saved me on many occasions.

just took a look at it it looks like a good choice in times of desperation :P
The battery went to zero once while I am using the GPS it took me almost 3 hours to find my way to a place that is less than 15 KM away :P this could definitely help as I hate car chargers (they cause battery life shortening with constant use) will look into it later in Nokia store

http://www.amazon.com/Battery-BV-5JW...1555271&sr=1-1 $28. Can probably find cheaper elsewhere. Not a huge deal to change, there's video guides on youtube.

so far the best I could reach is 3ma after a restart and recharge which allows me to about 5 to 6 days of extremely light usage (power saver mood, and 2G only, and light phone usage)
however with heavy usage I get about 2 days out of it. (about 6 hours of navigation, about 3 hours of internet on wireless, about 2 hours of calls, a number of sms and some gaming as well *power saver mood is on!)
so was any one able to get better results?
is there a way to reduce the active consumption which is 100 to 300ma average under that kind of usage?
what is your own battery usage statistics?
