Yup, 538 had the best battery life, but it only works on the older 64MB version of the Gen3. It also had other problems, which I believe were fixed in the newer versions of the firmware.

It doesn't work on the current 512MB models, so it is not an option for many of the users with the new models.

The battery life in 681 and 708 was a ok, about 48hrs of continuous usage. Will have to see what it actually is on the new one, but I can't bear to put it aside for a full test .
