I am using the beta firmware and that may make a difference

Well, it seemed that there is some difference even among the same models. For another example, most of gray surface coating of mine fell away for itself for several months otherwise others' don't. Maybe it didn't seem a common case.
And your case seems a case of 'epub' files or so - refering to the flickering led, perhaps some PDF files needs much more CPU usage, in other words, battery power. This can be one factor which makes battery life vary like what I said.
btw, I don't suspect the battery life of DR800SG is shorter than other devices and I didn't complain about it. Just I was confused with the relation between 3G and battery for a moment after seeing the matrix here, but it was already solved.
