Bought my kindle last December and soon after the firmware upgrade to 3.1 was done. I have read these boards over the last year looking for a solution to my problem. And that is short battery charge life, had my original 3g replaced by amazon and still had the problem.

Have had over 700 + books loaded and have checked several times over time to see if it was stuck in an index loop and it was not. I am a heavy reader so I sort of got used to a one week charge life. Have restarted back to factory default several times and again no joy.

Now here is the neat part , I installed 3.3 the other day and it looks like my battery charge life problem is solved. Instead of being able to watch the battery charge bar drop by large chunks every day, it is barely moving after several days use.

I have been tempted to post about this in the past but was content to see if anyone else had my exact problem of one week or less charge life and the unit is not stuck in an indexing loop, and I have not.

So I figured it was just my heavy use of my kindle that was the problem, now I am not so sure. If the upgrade to 3.3 solved it and it looks like it did, I am one happy camper!
