Re: Battery Fix
I read on smartphonejunkie.com (thread=http://www.smartphonejunkie.com/showthread.php?t=173865) that some people discovered they had the RSS Hub application turned on and was always downloading new feeds and messages when a EVDO network connection was available (which for most is going to be a good portion of the time.)
I know a coworker of mine bought one and just went into RSS Hub to see what it was. He has been complaining of fast battery drain ever since. So that may be one think folks want to check.
Also, if you are polling the battery less often, then it is like syncing your email every 2 hrs. You may have new mail, but you wont know until your email application polls the server in the next 2 hr interval. Which means the battery reg edit may only be superficial. Depending on how your usage staggers your battery polling, you could see some drastic drops in battery life.
The person who found the RSS thing said they watched for their data meter to just kick into gear, went to task/process manager, and found RSS HUb was running when they had not launched it in days. They turned the auto updates off and seemed to improve battery and stop the randong data polling.
I hope this helps!
