How do I check if it has charged to 100 percent? I am only going by the battery indicator. Also how do I adjust the power for the wi-fi? Cheers.

day 1: Full charge over night, normal use (calls, sms, applications,games BUT NO WI-FI): At midnight i still had 1/4 battery.
Day 2: Full charge overnight: First thing in the morning, wi-fi on, check e-mail, wi-fi off (5min tops). normal use and by 2 pm, battery out. Then, full charge, no use and by bed time, less than half the battery.
day 3: REBOOT. Charge over night. 2 phone calls, 5 sms and 15 min of music (mp3). Now, battery still full.
Just the fact of turning on Wi-fi and then turning it off will forever drain you battery until reboot. It's a bug and it has been discussed in this board before. Hope it's corrected in the next firmware

lshal | grep perc
it should give you the percentage.
To enable power saving on the wfi follow the steps:
Settings -> Internet Connections -> Connections
Select your wifi connection and press Edit then :
Next - > Next -> Next -> Advanced
Then click on the Other tab and change WLAN transmission power to 10 mW and power saving to On (maximum)
press Save - > Finish -> Done -> Save
You should be ready now.
In any case, make sure you disable the wifi when it is not needed
I hope this helps

Thank you Yorg. I've done that already and the problem is still there. Wi-fi is always disable when not in use and once activated and the deactivate it keeps working in background or at least it seams so.

I also have had zero problems. In fact, the only problem is that my wife hates the N900 because I'm aways fondling it & not her.
