So I bought another original Nokia battery, that was fully charged this morning after 24h with the phone turned off (I switched back to my N95 for that), not after I forecly drained it from 34% to 0% (by overloading the CPU with 30 apps open - that was pretty cool actually).

Disconnected the phone from the charger this morning, and guess what, battery drained after 7 hours of medium use.

Luckily I had my N95 with me so it saved me again. But this is not an acceptable scenario. My co-worker with an iPhone has 67% battery (unplugged phone at the same time as me), and my younger brother played games with it's iPhone with 10% battery left, for 2 hours!!

10% battery with n900 lasts for around an hour with no use, or 10 minutes of massive use.

And for whoever is referring to this bug fix, please explain it to me, as I don't want to apply any fixes without understanding what exactly they do, and unfortunatelly I'm no shell script master...
This has not been my experience at all. It is quite irrational to compare with other devices without stating the settings of your n900 and others - wifi , 3g off/on etc. Be reasonable.
