I did some quantitative testing this weekend.

In short, I exaggerated a fair bit in my original post, but the actual battery usage was still higher than I would expect.

My equipment: Axim X50v with a standard 1100mAh battery, bluetooth and WiFi both shut off and the processor set to auto speed.
The OS on my Axim is WM2003

I did 3 tests, each time starting with the battery freshly charged.

1) A baseline test with the backlight on and the Axim idle on my desk for 30 minutes. The battery started at 100% and had dropped to 92% at the end of the test.

2) 30 minutes playing "Jawbreaker" the battery went from 100% to 92%, again.

3) 30 minutes playing Sudoku Rules the battery went from 100% to 80%
