Robertb: Ta for this update. I keep hearing 30 different views on battery life. Seems a bit strange..... I have the March firmware and have had no problems. On my second charge that has lasted for WEEKS... now at 1/2 or maybe a wee bit below. Will charge for 12 hours today.
I think charging at half is a good Idea. Was not aware that there may be problems if the battery went too low.
