... and this was definitely a problem with Maemo devices that I played
with (N770, N800, et. al.).  You'd install 3 or 4 applications, then
start running without the power adapter permanently attached, and hey
surprise!  The battery would be drained very quickly even though the
device was "idle".  Figuring out which application was at fault was
basically done via brute force, which was not fun....
