We all know android sucks for battery life. That's what happens when you run emulated code... It is up to the OEM's to DEMAND less power intensive apps...
GB can run code completely natively (just a bit of Android code like a front-end or a bridge to the screen, or however you'd say it), so I think this is a moot point going forward.
So Gingerbread runs code without the need of the Dalvik VM???? That is news to me if it's true. As far as I know Android runs EVERY application under VM. Can you give me a link that shows otherwise? If they have changed it up then battery life should be comparable to the iPhone...
