P910i slows as battery dips below 15%

Hi,

I've heard of reports of poor performance of P910i models as the battery
dips below 15%.

Anyone confirm or deny?

I got mine a week ago and for the first few days I was convinced there was
something wrong with it. Frequent lockups, slow to reposnd when switching
apps, poor or no playback of video/audio/photos and then grinding to a halt.
But the battery wasnt fully charged. I have since done a full charge then a
full discharge (left a long video clip on loop for most of the day!) and
then a full recharge. Since then, so far so good.

But I came to the same conclusion that when the batt gets to approx 15% its
on its last legs. I'll run mine down to that level again and see what
happens....

I got mine down to 2% last night before it started giving me grief.

However, we'll see how long it lasts on the full charge this time (wasn't
impressed with SE's 4 hour initial charge result).

Mine is running for about 3 days used as a phone only, any browsing or other
interactive functions shorten it to a couple of days max, bluetooth seems to
be a killer for it (althouth the range is great, I can surf the web anywhere
in the house using passthrough)

I'm still trying to get the bluetooth to settle down. Have access to the
phone but struggling to get modem access. Do you use the phone's gprs for
surfing or dial up?

Dialup can work but it's fiddly - I use a TDK bluetooth adaptor. I have to
turn off the phone link manager
in the systme tray (disable all ports) to make a dialup conection or gprs
connection over the P910. I don't do it much now as I'm using the in built
mail client with IMAP4 and also the in built browser for the odd web page I
need in a hurry - most of my mobile access is to wap.bt.com for directory
enquiries anyhow!
