I'm not sure if it's the way I'm using my unit or if I am having a problem
but I am getting some odities with battery usage.  I find that there are
times when I lose a lot of charge over night.  For example, when I shut down
for the night I was at 17 percent.  In the morning I was at 3 percent.
There are also times when I only lose 2 percent over night.  What is running
to use so much power?  It doesn't make sense that a clock and calendar would
require so much.  I also find that the power level drops more rapidly once
it hits 60 percent charged.  I'm getting about 11 hours of actual usage
although I managed about 8 once.  Do I have a problem or is that normal?
Other than that, I'm getting the hang of using my unit efficiently.  I am
having a bit of a problem with saving and retrieving items from and to the
calculator but that's for another time.  I'll read the help file again and
I'll most likely get it!  Have a nice day.  Going to be about 60 and sunny!
