Any ideas to increment the life of the battery with both (windows mobile, android)?

There's a silly issue with older devices, the panel is never properly powered down - we just set the brightness to 0 so it appears off. Obviously this isn't the best method, but we don't know how to properly collapse the panel on all these different devices. The RHOD is almost completely finished on this, and our battery life skyrocketed. So once the code is committed, hopefully some of the devs can hack it apart and make it work on other devices.
Until then, the best way to save battery is to turn off data (there's an app called APNdata or something... search for APN in the market) - and obviously any other radios when they're not in use like wifi, bt, gps, etc.
Also, this is probably the most important - make sure the device is actually going to sleep when you turn it off - sometimes apps or other issues can prevent the phone from properly sleeping, which will obviously drain your battery quickly!
