Exactly!. The CPU consumes waay too much power even in standby.
That's why I posted this, because I can't belive iRex is presenting this numbers as a solution. It's unacceptable.

This was the one thing they had to get right after the humiliation of having to lauch a battery replacemt program for the original iLiad.

Funny, when I placed my order I convinced myself by thinking that no matter how bad battery life was, it would always be better than the iLiad, but it seems I underestimeted iRex.
