I don't understand how anyone can talk about bad battery life. I did some benchmarks for myself:<br>
WLAN on + GPS on + GSM idle + Display on + Backlight on 100%: 3 hours 8 seconds<br>
WLAN on + GSM idle: > 6 hours<br>
GSM idle: > 9 hours<br>

Could you advise what image set you use? The default shipment image should have 100+ hours of suspend/wake up-able time.<br>

There's no way I could test how long the suspendtime is, because I don't want to spend some days without playing with the neo :)<br>But it's not hard for me to believe the 100+ hours you're talking about.<br>
<br>Again: The batterylife is not only promising, it's already pretty good, and it can still get better!<br><br>FYI: I used ASU for the tests, but that shouldn't matter at all.<br>
