So far it looks like a reboot is mostly equal to a night-long idle consumption. To me at least. 44 reboots and 60 nights, considering a difference in how old a battery is, could very well be the case. I also take a bit into account battery heat dissipation (in the case of 44 consecutive reboot). So, I would guess that leaving it on in offline is better than turning it off and than on during the night (it's faster to switch between offline/online than actually rebooting). But rebooting ensures and memory leak gets a workaround. oh well.. -- anidel Sent from London, Eng, United Kingdom _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@xxxxxxxxx https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
