heres a paragraph form engadgets xoom review to give u an idea on battery lifeNow, if you wouldnt mind... could you not play with it at all for the next 12 hours and just have it run a video loop while connected to 3g and wifi to guage the battery?
Come on, think of the service that you'll be providing. We'd totally owe you one.
Battery life on the Xoom was excellent. Beyond excellent, actually -- some of the best performance we've seen on a slate. Running a video on loop with the screen set at 65 percent brightness, we were able to get playback for nearly eight and a half hours (8:20 to be exact). Motorola claims up to ten, so we weren't far off the mark at all. We had a few background tasks going on, and both WiFi and 3G radios were active. We could easily see maximizing this if you're in airplane mode with a slightly lower brightness setting.
Because if this thing has a 3250 mah battery life and gets 10 hours of video, there are two important things we can derive from that.
1) Motorola did something drastic to limit battery consumption such as reduce the max brightness of the screen
or
2) The Galaxy tab 10.1 which has a 6860mah battery will be able to play video for nearly 24 hours straight.
I would so be getting the GTab2 if that was true^
I don't know if HDMI and Micro SD are worth that though lol.

Oooof. Well, that pretty much makes the Samsung Galaxy 10.1 a million times more interesting. I mean, it has over double the battery size of the Xoom, so they can claim what like 24 hours of video playback??
I don't know why they didnt make it s touch thicker and give it a battery life that is well beyond all competition. I wonder if the big toshiba tablet will have a big battery.
I thought the Toshiba tablet was confirmed to have a battery in the 2000's mah. I was taken aback when I read it because it seemed small as hell to me.

Yea, 2030 mah, deplorable if true. Although as noted in that article that was just a display unit.
Can you test out Vplayer? (with normal + HD) with format not .mp4 obviously.
thx in advance

Boy Genius report review indicates that the text and photos in the browser are not real sharp. Thoughts?
It's sorta weird... I thought so too, but I switched the browser to use smaller fonts and set it to not auto-fit pages and everything seems fine now.
Alee can you let us know the partition size for apps of the 32GB?
The pixel density is borderline on this device. It will be a problem for 10.1 inch tablets.
It has the same resolution as my 13.3 inch MacBook Pro, shouldn't be an issue. The issue is with the software itself.
