FWIW, I've found that if I use the G1 only as a phone, it lasts fairly long. In fact last time when I topped the battery off at 100% and removed it from the charger before I went to bed, it was at 99% 12 hours later when I checked it. So a pure standby-only time of 5 days seems fairly feasible to me given my experiences with my G1. But once you start opening up browser windows and turning on WiFi, it's easy to burn the battery down in just a few hours. This is on a non-Dev phone btw.

Drain it down until it absolutely won't boot. (Lower is better.) Then charge it -uninterrupted- for at least 8 hours (longer is better, up to about 24 hours..) The default charge calibration is worthless.
