Yes, had to connect at another wi-fi point yesterday, and I disconnected and reconnected, and didn't need to put in the passkye again, so anybody wanting to save on battery when not needing to be connected to wi-fi, just go to settings, and swipe the disconnect from wi-fi button, and the same on the connect button when required again, easy and strait forward, and given that I'm only getting about 5 hours battery life at the moment, will be doing this - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: Barbara Wilson To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, March 01, 2011 1:35 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Battery life on the iPod Touch It should be remembered.

There didn't seem to be a button to click to remember passkey - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: Barbara Wilson To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, March 01, 2011 11:44 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Battery life on the iPod Touch This is correct Andy, r a least how it works for me. I just stay connected all the time, saves a lot of fiddling about when you want to dosomething which requires a connection.

Like Carol so far I have kept it connected via wi-fi, though I'm imagining if I disconnect and reconnect, I'll not need to enter my passkey again, is that actually correct? - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: Barbara Wilson To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, March 01, 2011 8:13 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Battery life on the iPod Touch I always keep Bluetooth off unless required. Mine has been down to 10% without dying like Andy's seems to do at 15%.

I would think that the speech is quite draining on the battery, and I don't turn my WiFi or bluetooth off either because I don't think I can do it quickly enough to feel comfortable in putting it on again quickly. Maybe I'll get there but for now that's the best I'm managing with the battery life. -- Carol P ---- Original Message ---- From: ANDY COLLINS To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, February 28, 2011 10:57 PM Subject: [access-uk] Battery life on the iPod Touch > Hi all - not sure where I read it now, but thought I > could expect something like 40 hours of battery life.
