That's something I noticed too and I'm not sure how we could make it better. I've frequently used my Keon as a wifi hotspot so that both my laptop and my wife's could get internet access via my data plan when traveling. Under those conditions the only way to keep the battery from drying up is to have it charging via USB at the same time.

In spite of this, under active usage the phone almost doesn't charge so it's apparent that keeping both the 3G and WiFi antennas busy (plus the AES encryption on the traffic) is not easy on the hardware.
