Yeah the same, and don't believe those who will be like 24 hrs or so its not true. Always online, music player, a little browsing, email, some calling its about 5-8hrs. Maybe i sit at home too much but this was never was a problem, if it took it of changer in the morning. If you want to extend battery life, wifi switcher is the one that gives the best results, but again you will lose the idea of N900 "Online as it happens" I still remember the days of Nokia 5110 battery life
