All,
for what it is worth. battery charge duration is appearing as an issue
with the Motorola Droid as well. I have started using a Droid and I
notice that I need to charge it every night, and, if I fail to do that,
then the next day it runs low on battery charge. Here is the url to
some advice posted on the Verizon Wireless www site concerning battery
duration related issues:

Of course the Verizon Wireless Droid uses EVDO for Internet access which
may be more or less power efficient than HSDPA as implemented on the
N900, I am not sure. One think I like about the Droid is that there is a
way for the user to be informed of WHAT is consuming the power on the
device in each of 9 categories including
Display
Voice Calls
Phone Idle
Wi-Fi
Cell Standby
Browser
Android System
Bluetooth
Android OS
