Mhm... My battery life is ~12-24 hours (offline mode, idle). Now: yes, I do have an old battery now, but I can't remember it was any better in the early days.

If the SD card could be a problem:
How could I tell? Would it be enough to umount both of them on my N800? Or would I need to remove them physically? Or is there something in dmesg that shows power consumtion from the SD is too high?

And, of course:
Once I find out it's the SD cards (or one of them), do we have a list of cards known to play nicely with the device and keep the battery alive?
