you could also try the wifi-switcher

after you connect to wifi, just use the switcher to disable wifi then you'll be fine

How exactly do you use the switcher? When I open it, it says: Select Application from the list to open the file. Which application is it? :-S

You need to install it first, via terminal.

sudo gainroot
dpkg -i filename.deb

Is it just me or should this switcher go in the power button menu with the cell phone switcher? Having the 2 in 2 menus doesn't make any sense...

After reboot, I never enabled WiFi. after 48 hours, I still have over 25% battery level. If I enable WiFi, it's dead in 15 - 18 hours.

Settings: Search never.

I am going to try the switcher.
