Suffice to say, luca's battery life claims are completely bogus.
Yeah, that sounds much better. I have yet to not get at least 4hrs using mine. But did not want to claim more as I have not been awake when the power finally poop'd out to say when it occured.



And thanks to everyone for the links to alternative conversion apps! I have had little success with the Internet Tablet Video Converter, maybe I just don't understand it completely, others have mentioned it works well for them sooooo.

But I have had great success with the Nokia N800 Video Convert software. I also get perfect results from using the DIVX converter for my DIVX video so I have little need to convert to another format in order to reformat the video for the NIT's. Really why add an extra conversion when Mplayer plays DIVX just fine.

Both the Divx Converter and Nokia N800 Convert work in batch mode so tonight I'll run a batch and see how it works by tomorrow AM.
