Battery Issues?!

I just unplugged my 6700 from the cradle and less than 2 minutes later it says it's already down to 90%. Is this normal? I mean, shouldn't it be at 100% for a little while longer right when I take it off the charger?!

Yeah, now it's already down to 80%. What a piece of crap!

Go here and download acbpowermeter:

Check out and see what is running on your device to be draining your battery. Hint: the CDMA radio and Wi-Fi are the two biggest power draws on these devices.

Barring that, maybe your battery is dying.

Thank you so much for the advice, friend. I didn't actually download the power meter, but I did have WiFi on since last night. Since I turned that off I haven't lost any power since you posted this. Thanks gain...a lot!
