Battery power on TC1100

battery on my TC1100 went from 3.15 hrs in Feb. 2007 to 2.15 hrs currently. Is this normal?

Brick: It could be; a lot of factors associated with battery life are related to use patterns. Without knowing how you use your battery, it's hard to say whether your experience is typical, or not...

Well, I use it 1/2 the day... about 6-8 hrs per day, doing research, writing, games, & chat.

Brick: It's not just about how long you use it. See:

This is probably the fastest way for you to get up to speed on the basic factors that drive battery life and performance...
