I don't see the point for some people to limit their internet usage, not getting connected all the time, kill the 3G connection just to save battery life. What's a internet tablet for then?

Admit it, N900 battery life sucks.

It's built for heaving surfing, internet usage so naturally I expect the battery life to last longer than what it offers now. Try online with the device for few hours and see how fast your battery life depletes.

If you want to just 'make some calls, sms a bit, open some web sites' my old Nokia N71 can do that too, want to trade?

But I agree on the unnecessary fancy widgets sucking the battery life, and try to reduce the brightness too. (then again, how to appreciate a 267 ppi resolution? :P)
