I have 50% left with this info:

Standby: 10h 51m
Talk time: 7 min
Device usage: 2h 18m
I have my brightness 2 notches away from full...push email (Gmail activesync), rss hub updating every 2 hours, weather autoupdates...what seems to drain battery the most is the glitch where the backlight comes on by itself...it seems to happen every few minutes sometimes...
After reading posts here, I would say my battery life is better than some but not as good as others...I charge it every night (I like having a fully charged battery in the morning) so I've probably done 10 charges or so...a couple times though I feel like I went very quickly from one bar to it telling me to plug it in so is it possible for a battery to drain quickly towards the end?

My battery is similar to yours in terms of device usage and standby time and how much juice is left afterwards, im not sure if I should try to get a new battery or what to do. I dont have the backlight problem though.
When they say it takes a few charge/discharge cycles for the battery to kick in does that mean you have to let it completely drain? My battery does drain rather fast from 1 bar to the exclamation mark sign as well.

Wow your battery is amazing, I wish mine would last that long all around. I was wondering how come your talk time is greater than your device usage time, mine counts the talk time towards the device usage time. Do you have any of your own tips on what to do to optimize my battery use?? Thanks for posting a ss!
