Can anyone tell me how long the battery lasts on the NX70v when...

1) Watching videos
2) Listening to music with HOLD on
3) Using memos, calander, to do list, etc.
4) Watching flash movies/playing flash games

Note: The backlight will probably be around 30%

And as for the flash question, will you be able to use the keyboard with it?
ie - a game requires a,s,d, and the arrow keys to be player, can you just
use the built in keyboard the same way?

1) Not sure - testing mine as we speak(watching The Incredibles with 100% backlight after a full charge)-UPDATE: I got about 1:50 use out of it
2) A good while - mine has lasted at least 4 hours before
3) A good while - normal organizer use doesn't consume a whole lot of power
4) Never really seen many long flash movies

Power consumption is also based on the age of your battery as well. It's kinda hard to tell you exactly how long things will last since each person's Clie is a different age and the battery normally ages as well. I'd say your best bet is to try those things out yourself and see how long your Clie runs.

Yes, you can use the hard keys to play games. However I have found it quite ackward in doing so. It's just not setup for that since you have to have the Clie open all the way to gain access to the keys. If you play a lot of games, you might want to look into the game controller thingy. I don't play that many games so I really can't tell you how well it works.
