so, my n900 barely lasts 10 hrs on 1 charge. i thought "hey, maybe it's b/c i had widgets x, y, z running" so i wiped everything and started from scratch (PR1.2), yet i still have the poor battery life. i have bluetooth and wifi on, but even then 10 hrs of standby, no talking, seems a bit poor doesn't it? i haven't installed ANYTHING at all, and am using Nokia Messaging as well as skype and gtalk.
is the battery covered by the warranty?

I find that 3G also consumes battery. if you combine that with wifi. Things get ugly.
If you have wifi on, at least switch from 3G to GSM.

Seriously, nobody has anything positive to post? Guess I'm gonna have to enjoy my tablet and stop reading these forums.

I'm going on 72hrs and battery is still at 50%. I have no SIM installed, and running on WiFi the whole time, with weather/email/facebook updating.
My 900 got wet and the screen is dark, but is still functional/visible if external light shines on it. I normally can go 24-36hrs of normal use in a full signal 3G area. Not much difference in 2G/2.5G mode.
