Errr.. is it just me, or does the IPAQ hx2750 have power issues.?

I have 3 IPAQ's... ALL with smaller capacity batteries, and ALL of them out
perform my new IPAQ hx2750.

I mainly use Bluetooth... and with my 2210, can get around 6 hours with
it's battery.

I also have one of the rx3715 Media Companion's, and it's battery is
IDENTICAL to the hx2750, and using Bluetooth on the Media Companion, I get a
massive 8-9 hours or so.

How come the hx2750 can only do 4 hours and a bit using Bluetooth, which is
less than my 2210.

I exchanged the battery with the rx3715, and got identical results, so it
isn't the actual battery... it seems to be the hx2750 itself.

Something seems to be causing tremendous power drain.

If I hard reset the unit, and then leave network deactivated... then the
Power settings indicate a battery remaining time of around 11.5 - 12 hours,
which is what I get with the Media companion... but if I activate
Bluetooth... the remaining time drops to 4 hours. and if I turn off
Bluetooth and activate WiFi... it reports batter remaining time of 4.6
hours. (more than the bluetooth) (grin)

Something is freakin up the shaft here!

I know earlier model IPAQ's had power issues, which were patched with
firmware.

Any other hx2750 users out there with similar issues?
