keep removing apps one by one till your battery life improves. Worth a shot.

Been experiencing this for about 5 days now - first I put it down to the cold weather, but now it only lasts with my normal usage until around 5pm...

Could you perhaps borrow/switch a battery? (friend with 5800?)
It may be a longshot and probably not the cause, but li-ion batteries do lose a lot of capacity in certain conditions, like overheating
Maybe it would be best to uninstall all apps that are not vital and start re-adding

Turn off all widgets (especially the facebook widget)
Turn down the screen brightness
Check what's hapening with wifi - there's a wifi-disconnect bug that people have reported. Search this forum if you think that could be your trouble.
(If I can find that thread I'll come back and link it)
Try this thread.

Lol if all fails.. Try reflash the device, then freshly start with your N900 with the programs that isn't from extras-devel..

Back up, reflash, restore, but don't restore settings. Worked for me with same problem. It doesn't take long to put the settings back in manually - I was surprised how many were preserved.

Try running top, and see if an app is hogging CPU cycles.

I wish someone would publish the powertop package to the repos. Its on some firmwares not others. There is a thread or two on it but I don't believe anything came of it.

Can anyone help? I can't see anything different that I'm doing, I've had the device connected to Skype & MSN all day as usual, connected via Vodafone 3g.
Thanks in advance..
