are seeing?<br>
<br>
I just read an article in Information Week that cited a large poll<br>
concerning users of mobile devices. What was the number 1 issue, far<br>
and above any other issue people are concerned about and want to see<br>
improvement. Yes, battery life.<br>
<br>
The times I've seen posted here are pathetic! 8 hours of standby!<br>
Christ, my MotoQ has almost 8 hours of active phone time! 8 hours of<br>
standby makes the FR a toy at best.<br>
<br>
I realize that a lot of people are just trying to get the unit to accept<br>
a sim card, or make a call, get a gps fix, etc.. But I seriously can't<br>
use it as anything but a desk toy with that kind of battery life.<br>
<br>
Is there an ACPI or some other kind of power monitor built in that is<br>
granular enough for somebody to work on this problem using software?<br>

Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add "within the limits of the law," because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.<br>
