I just did a test today. I had the same software installed, same today pluggins, etc. on my X50v with WM5 and no CF or SD cards in it. Pulled from Charger at 5:00am. I just checked it (at 11:00am, six hours later) and battery was only down to 97%. The previous days with CF/SD cards and very little use it was down to about 30% by this time.

The problem is definately related to memory cards and wm5 but this might not be the only reason. My next test will be to start uninstalling software. I have tried 2 different CD cards and 3 different SD cards so I do not think it is related to brand of card.
