No need to wait for battery to be charged to run top, it just shows active processes and their MPU usage, battery charge does not matter. And no need to post top output here, just check if there is some process which constantly uses MPU.

The other tool you could use is powertop (google a bit how to install and use it)

Did you check your wifi power settings? Because if wifi is running without power management enabled, the battery will be flat in a matter of 4-6 hours and the device will become hot.

I will ask you once again for dmesg output. To get it:

- open terminal
- cd /home/user/MyDocs (type it exactly how it is here, with capital M and D in MyDocs)
- type "dmesg >dmesg.txt"

Then upload dmesg.txt here. You will find it in main(Nokia N900) folder in File Manager.

BTW I am experiencing the same(if not slightly better) battery life with KP50 as with KP49.
