Anyways I used my device for a little over 4 hours beyond that, had 32 emails , a couple of mms , a handful of sms , 3 or 4 calls from the wife, and played a level of Xtract , and about 30 minutes web usage and it only dropped 15% down to 44% total. That is more like the stamina I was getting when I first got the TP2. So the only thing I changed was enabling the wifi , checking discharge and then disabling wifi. SO it is my opinion it HAS to be soimething to do with the damned wifi.

Plus this morning I was able to check about 14-15 emails , read a couple posts on the web, and got 2 mms and 1 text and it only dropped my battery to 97% where as the last 3 days it would have easily been down to 80%. I only hope it stays this way. Or maybe I will have to enable then disable wifi after every soft reset , idk....

you guys goto remember wifi will drain your battery it is constantly pinging to your router or wifi tower signal is constant. alway turn off wifi if you not using it, and if you are using it make sure to turn it off after use

this will drain your battery like anything....
