Hi all,

I just ran the Palm Benchmark or pbench
http://www.palmgear.com/software/showsoftware.cfm?prodID=47839

and Only got 3:35:40. That's less than 4 hours. I'm a bit disappointed. This is with the backlight on full and beam recieve off.

Does this sound right? Anyone else with an sj22 willing to run the benchmark or have already run it and willing to post their results?

I will try it again with the backlight at 50% tonight.

What did you expect? Any backlit color PDA at 100% should drain the battery pretty well, whether it be a Tungsten or an SJ22

Brighthand's article abou the SJ30 (SJ22) stated that they got 9 hours with the backlight on 25%, which is better than the monochrome SJ20

Please report your battery stats for the backlight at 50%....I'm interested in reading the stats
