I think thats unrealistic, but would be nice. It's more likely to be around half to maybe a full day tops. Problem is that the wifi, although idle, needs to be active and connected to the network to make remote instantly 'always on' responsive and ready to go as soon as (before) you pick it up. Even with modern wireless networks built power management, PDA's etc drop the connection to save power when idle, but this delay would be a pain for the SBC. at least thats what i believe is going on, correct? But it needs work and i am sure i read that they were saying it's more a software optimisation rather than just a hardware one - so better power management is coming even to the beta units? I'm thinking of raising an enhancement request to add option would give users the ability to override this constant connection and increase battery performance at the expense of responsiveness.
