Did never any scientific tests, but the 7 hours doesn't sound right. My typical usage pattern is either (starting from fully charged): (i) use it fairly often throughout the day (web browsing, xterm for ssh remote login), but put it in its cover when not needed. Battery at the end of the day is down to the last indicator, but no warning. Alternatively, use it rarely to check mail or quickly look at a weather page ..., standby for the remainders. This brought me to three days, and a battery indicator down to two dashes (about half). All this seems/-ed to be in line with what Nokia claims. Hope that that clarifies things, although it's not necessarily good news for you.
