Hi I've just flashed mine to 800MHz but its past 3 minutes after the reboot but still the frequency is never below 500MHz even when the CPU usage is 5%. I don't think the minimum is set to 500 is it? coz it will drain my battery twice faster than before

can some one who has monitored the batter usage @600 mhz now try @800/900 mhz and tell us how they compare?

Been at 900mhz for a few hours now, maxed out the CPU for quite awhile by running NES emulation and a few web pages in the background while playing a few flash-based games on miniclip.com... Seems pretty stable, conky reported cpu usage at 100% for about 15min straight. Of course, now I have to charge the darned thing

not sure about stock but when charhing its only using about 5-6 percent of cpu (500mhz) so not should not be a problem as you are not maxing the cpu at all
