You didn't mention if you
- installed ANY apps at all
- how you charged your phone (via the charger or using the usb cable)

I'm also just got the n900 and evaluating the battery life on at&t (no 3G).
-I haven't installed any apps,
-I charge using the charger
- display on lowest setting
- my SIM is also about 4 years old
- I have the same settings you except I do let it connect to at&t internet automatically, search 10 mins. No wifi ever
- only had it 4 days and because of xmas, I havent been on my usual daily routine to compare to E71. But looks like

9am - midnight => 20% battery left. 5 mins of calls, Nokia Messaging checking every 30 mins and 2 accounts in conversations. Connected to at&t internet (2G) the whole time. The screen is probably on 15 mins MAX the whole period.

I'm hoping it can be 30-40% at mid-night when I get back to my daily routine... I'll know next week
