Have been texting, couple of calls, internet and playing games.

Just dropped to below 30% at 9.30 pm.
that power widget is handy... for me, it's turning out to be better than using auto-brightness... the first level from no backlight is about 25% (you can go check in the brightness settings...)... off is well, 0%... and full is 100%... so the 25% level is still bright to be useful in lit rooms, but not sucking down juice as much...

WiFi - interesting... although i guess if a solid wifi signal is present, the cell data doesn't have to constantly be searching and/or swithching between edge and 3G if the signal is a bit weak...

with your usage, doesn't all that stingy, and about how i use mine... i'm wondering if various batches have shittier batteries... or if there is just one small variable that either makes or breaks battery life that it's obvious yet at this point...

cheers
