Hey P800 owners !

What is your P800's battery life ? With heavy usage and general usage, how many days does your P800 lasts ?

Thanks.

Who knows, when at home instead of putting it on the table i put it in the sync station/charger.
When out it lives on the car charger.
Apart from that it hasn`t run out at all, so it must be at least a full day with heavy use as i`ve often been using it for a whole day showing it off & demonstrating it without it draining, by comparison i had an 3870 ipaq (new) which was only good for about 2 hours.
So it`s about halfway between an ipaq & a T68i.

Normal use i still have to charge at the end of the day since signal of my network provider here is very weak. Maybe if it were stronger id be getting more out of my battery.

20 hours under extremely heavy use. A guy from SE Philippines said his lasted 8 hours non-stop demo w/ internet. So, I take his word for it.... still better than iPaq's 4 hours.

I get 20 w/ really heavy use (I use TipicMe a lot... I leave it running) and about 36 hours normal use... 2 days 'light' use... and by light, I mean, I still surf, call & send SMS... so I'm guessing this thing has about 3-4 days for someone who won't use the PDA functions at all...but then, why on earth would you buy a P800 and not use all it's functions?!?!?!

today i'm at 90% light to normal use, 14 hrs since last charge...
last friday it was 75%, 14 hrs since last charge...
during the first few weeks, it was around 40%-50%, 14 hrs since last charge, light to normal use...

i left P800 on the cradle (chrging) this weekend, the only weekend i stayed home since this jan... i guess this did a lot for the batt performance...
