As for memory, you have to keep it powered if you are using it or not. You cannot turn off the power to half your memory to save power.Oh really? Go ahead and open 20 browser windows and watch how fast your battery dies.
That's not true. Memory power consumption scales as needed.
OK I have on any given day anywhere between 10 - 15 browser windows open in the stock browser. I have my widgets running, with a battery miser that shuts off wifi, gps, APN after two minutes of sleep. I listen to Pandora/MP3s for approx 2 hours on the commute, browse for about 1 or 2, facebook, text and about 30 minutes of phone calls. I unplug at 100% at 7am and get home at 7:30 pm with 40%-50% every day. No task killers involved.
That's terrible battery life. You're using what? A total of 4 or 5 apps? If my Droid used that much battery in 24 hours I'd throw it in the river. Plus your short story is very conflicting with your own story. You're not a good story teller.
OK. What? Anyway. 4 or 5 Apps? Browsing on a train for one hour STRAIGHT over 3G and streaming pandora/listening to MP3s. Doing the same thing on the trian ride home. Throughout the day 30 minutes or so of phone calls and 20 or so texts. During lunch hit Facebook for 10 - 15 minutes and sometimes Engadget mobile. That's bad? Ooh and I am OC'd to 800 Mhz as well with the on demand governor. So if you think that is bad battery life you sir either don't use your phone at all. I would love to see how much battery you have left with 10-15 browser windows open and running and browsing the web for 2 hours.
