I normally get 30-48h usage. Could probably extend that if i didn't use the phone so much.

So yes.. 5 hours is to little. Try charge it to max.. then remove and insert the battery again. Then charge again. DON'T do it to much as it could hurt your battery.
Definitively 5 hours is too little, maybe i will do as you suggest, but: if i plug the charged battery againt, the system will recharge it againt, does not recognize that the battery is already full charged?

I've temporary shut down the twitter plugin, so no more cpu hog, but definitively this is a bug.

Thanks, tested it. Wifi works with 10 mW, but transmit rate is a bit weaker and latency increases. It could still be worth it, if battery life increases 20-30 % with it.

Here's a screenshot from batterygraph if anyone is interested. CPU is in complete sleep when idling as you can see.

10mW for wifi is good if your routers always close..
have been using that for weeks now....
just started using intermediate wifi powersave, will give it a go.

I always plug my N900 in @ night...

for me since the pr1.2 i'have hildon-desktop at 7-17% CPU. I can reload my n900 every night.

Before 1.2 i got easily 3days. in standard use.

You SHOULD NOT do this to a Lithium-Ion battery if you want it to have a decent battery life.

Znuf: I had the same problem after 1.2 OTA update, I guess that reflashing will kill that problem in your case too.
