Also, does the color brightness of the screen effect battery power?
(i.e. if the background is all white compared to all black with the backlight on it's fullest preset)

On WM2003se i noticed many programs can reduce battery life, becaue they use ram to run and ram uses battery. The brighter something is, the more energy it uses. So a brighter backlight should use more battery. On wm2005 the backlight is the same, but i dont know how open programs affect battery life on that os.
