Both have seemed to help video playback dramatically (YouTube & otherwise...)

Wow, battery is looking a heckuva lot better. I don't know if it's JIT or what... But I've been running it for 6 hours now. I started with ~80% battery in WinMo, and Android reports 5% currently. Impressive! I made & rec'd a couple of phone calls, did some GTalk & GVoice messaging... Sync has been enabled the entire time and while the battery status meter still seems very wrong, the battery life is definitely improving! I'm *almost* ready to flash... Where's the NAND neopeek!
Yeah, i agree. When they say "the battery level indicator is way off until fixed in the future, so don't stake anything by it." they aren't kidding. I found the same you did, it goes down fast, but yet after the low warnings, i continued using battery power option, and went quite a lot longer and STILL working, so definitely far from accurate. Which is a blessing. I put 2.2 and 2.1 on (following your suggestion) so i can go back and forth for now for more harcore testing. I added the 'no battery warning' command mentioned. Thanks for the info you told me, might help with testing.

Camera IS a deal breaker for me personally to use it as my ONLY os, which will change once it's done, no more WM (if i don't get an EVO by then.LOL.) since there are some wickedly useful apps, but need the camera for part of it. Still love it though.
