It's WORSE!

I get much worse battery life with my x50v running WM5 than I did with 2003se. I do have a secure digital card that stays in all the time, and so maybe I'm experiencing one of the battery drain problems described on this site. But this was a bit shocking. I pulled it off the cradle at work at about 7pm last night and by this morning it was dead. Wouldn't even turn on. I NEVER experienced drain like that under 2003se. In fact, I used it sporatically during the Thanksgiving weekend and it lasted almost 4 days.

Now I have to go check out the forums looking for battery drain problems. In the tips it says set the CPU to the max and that may help. If I can't solve this pretty quick, I'll have to roll back...
