2 hours battery life bad for 615?

[bobsetzer]

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.

I used to have very good battery life for my 615, but the life became short after I installed some applications. My guess is that one of your applications installed in your 615 was not tuned/coded well. It might run as background no matter your 615 is on or off.
