Latest kitchen, touch dial and hopefully not an overloaded ROM so i should be ok.

Did you get issues at 624?

I haven't had the courage to move up to 624 yet...ha ha I was waiting to see if any one else did...did you notice a difference between 624 and 520?

The slowest peice of software I have on redraw is Topo USA and use 8 meg to 42 meg for the map files, and I can see a difference in the refresh at 520, but it does not seem to be any faster at 624, maybe its me, kinda seems a bit slower at 625, but both are faster than stock clock.

Hey, schettj - Wow! How the heck did you get down to 27ma - 34ma?

The lowest I've ever seen is 47ma (backlight off, screen on). This was off a fresh build, no TSRs (I believe), and all 4 DisablePowerManagement registry entries set to 0.

Just stock WM6 stuff. Dunno why its so low WM5 was running in the low 30s.

OK, now I'm gettin' really pizzed!

I just built a "My cupboard is bare" Kitchen with nothing but the dotFred Registry Editor and acb PowerMeter.

I hard reset my XV6700, and after it booted up, the first thing I ran was acb PowerMeter. I let it run to idle (with backlight off), and I still saw my lowest draw at 47 mA.

What the heck did you do to get your power that low, schettj? Sneak a Zero-Point Module power source into your Apache while no one was looking?

Yep, I am measuring the dead idle draw - CPU on, screen OFF (you can do that using any number of utilities) to get under 30ma. The 47 is typical (and good) for idle screen on, backlight off. Add those power mgmt reg tweaks and it should be in the low 30s. 10ma makes a difference over a whole day!

I can tell you one fact - forgot to put mine in flight mode @ the gym - a bunker of a place @ work with no signal - and in 1 hour of "searching..." it dropped 20%.

excellent! I just installed it and my 6700 runs much faster now.

I just changed mine over to the 520mhz and it does seem a bit snappier now.

ive never tried 625... but i want to..

if its any better..

i use 520 and love it

( i think pagepool 10) also increases my speed to the max!

I installed the cab on WM6 kitchen R1 yesterday and so far it is definately quicker at 520. I'll be watching the battery and see if it makes an impact, but I think it's worth it either way
