I have put over 1,400 pages on the current full charge and it still shows 4 bars. It seems that there is a wide swing in battery life among users. I feel lucky to be on the high side although I feel I would be among those screaming if I was on the low side.

Also it seems to make an impact as to which add-in card you use. Those with SanDisk SD cards (even the 2 GB card) seem to report longer battery life in terms of page turns than those using any other brand of memory card. Also the Sony Memory Sticks seem to have long battery life. MP3 play also seems to shorten the battery life greatly.
