khalid, 5 days of that kind of usage is very good. i'm getting around 1-2 days with that kind of usage and i don't leave any apps opened.

There are some people on ebay, that are buying N800s, flashing with the updates, and selling them.

Perhaps there are. I think you may have accidentally posted in the wrong thread, however? That doesn't seem to have much to do with battery life...

i barely get a day's worth of battery life, however i use my tablet extensively for note taking, running palm apps, surfing and reading ebooks. i don't even use my notebook at school anymore :p

maybe there is a difference between flashing under windows and flashing under linux...
i've flashed under windows and have had a VERY bad battery-time with diablo compared with chinook.
will try to reflash under linux...
sounds not to be logic but it's worth a try

If you have bad battery life, please list all dekstop and statusbar plugins which you are using. Plugins are the most likely reason for bad battery life

have had a fresh diablo flash without any plugins or something different from chinook before... GPE Summary and clock as widgets, nothing as statusbar plugin..
basically the same installation as on chinook before.

While this may be a little off topic (as I dont have diablo on my n800) - but I too had been experiencing crappy battery performance.

Turns out - that while traveling I was exclusively charging via a cigarette charger and NOT the ac unit that came with my tablet.

Back home - to the AC unit - battery life went back to normal.

Thought I'd mention it.... just in case.... ;)
