Does your G2 run above 800mhz under the hood?

there is a guy on xda that has a way to overclock and has his running stable at 1.4

Yeah, I read that later in the day and man was I stoked. I was able to get mine running up to ~1.4, give or take. I'm trying to go higher without the phone going crazy but so far ~1.4 is the most stable. It's easy to over clock and it takes a few minutes, I highly recommend it. Head on over to the XDA site if you guys haven't already and check it out.

With no change at all from me, my brand new (bought today) g2 shows 950mhz on the temp CPU widget. Can that be right?

No complaints, yet, but I've got to think this will hit battery life...

The system throttles back the CPU speed to use what is needed, and when the battery level drops to about 50% it will actually slow the processor down to save the battery life.
