I agree, Peggy. Seems like you get different answers depending on who you
talk to. I have mine talking itself to death today in an attempt to see
what will happen from a full charge.
It has been going since 9:30 this morning ant it is now four PM; so it has
been going steady for six and a half hours.
Maybe you just don't get a good battery life if you use the unit
sporadically or in small amounts of time each day.

Speaking of battery information given in support mode, I wish the manual
gave more info about what readings might indicate a problem with the
battery, rather than our finding out through someone who talked to tech
support. It might be nice to have info in the manual about how to
evaluate our battery health based on the readings in support.
BTW, I think I mentioned that I've had my BN at work since April of
2001? I decided to see what reading I got under d of the support mode,
and it was 24 something. And that's after almost three years of use,
eight hours a day, five days a week, as a note taker. Yikes! My BN at
home said 29 something under d when I first plugged it in this morning,
and now it's saying the last measured discharge was 22528. Hmmm. It's
still plugged in though; could that make a difference? Maybe I'd better
do some more experimenting with it; I can't believe I'd need a new
battery after 14 months, but I guess anything's possible, huh?
