Personally I like Batti 1.3 better than the dogfood registry tweak. Batti also displays battery status as a line on the top 3 pixels of the screen.

http://pda.jasnapaka.com/batti/releases/1.3.php

My reasons:

1/ Using an x51v The CPU status does not show.
2/ Batti is more configurable - you can select what color the battery meter turns at what battery % (mine is blue at 100-21% and turns orange at 20%) AND you can configure it to check only once every 5 seconds. Ive always been wary of the battery check programs draining batteries by checking too much.

Maybe these can get implemented?
