What state did you leave it in when you put it in your bag? I normally carry my N800 in a belt pouch and, if I don't "Lock touch screen and keys", the battery will run completely dry (as in I have to hook it up to the charger to get any response at all, and, when I do, it reboots) over the course of several hours, presumably due to the touchscreen being bumped, causing the backlight to trigger. OTOH, once I figured out to lock the screen, I no longer see any appreciable power drain in transport. (Actually, aside from power use, I know that random bumps were registering on the touchscreen due to applications starting up and some of them (such as Maemopad+) showing random "scribbling"... I first started locking the screen to prevent this; the battery not running down was a happy side-effect.) -- News aggregation meets world domination.
