I bought my refurbed 615 last August from Sony. I love it. Does everything I need in small, handy package. The only problem is my battery on keeps me in business for 2 hours and 12 minutes, according to Palm Bench software. I've read the threads comparing the 665 and SJ33 and see battery times in excess of 4 hours. Since my battery is doing so poorly, I assume my refurb came with original battery.

You battery experts out there, is 2:12 battery life on a 615 as low as it seems to me? Soon, I plan to replace it with a new battery from the battery company I've read about in these forums.

Thanks for any feedback.

Have you adjusted your screen brightness? If it's at 100% that will affect your battery time. Usually keep mine about 60-70%.
