Mine is still holding a charge for between 1.5 & 2.5 days. I did take the advice and remove the three monitoring widgets I was running. That only leaves a couple (including weather) left that I like to keep on.

I did trash my easy debian install a month or so back, and haven't got round to re-installing it. I wonder how much juice running easy debian takes up? I only had it for occasional Iceweasel and OO Write/Calc use - and haven't really missed it much. I think having a charge last 2 rather than 1 day would be a good enough reason to not bother with it. I wish there was something like AbiWord on maemo, like the recent implementation of Gnumeric...
2.5 days? That sound really nice to have. I only have Weather and APNews widgets, and do use for phone (~less than an hour/day average). Occassionally I tinker with some apps. I guess combination of these cause my battery life to drain 1.5 - 2days max (fingers crossed).
