Hello, I'm very sorry if this is the wrong section to place this, and if so, I'd like the Admins to kindly inform me where can I direct my question.

I've just bought my N97 last Sunday, 1st day i left it for 12 hours charging and today it suddenly it turned off (i've read that there's a bug in the FW that causes the battery bars not to be shown when they decrease).

Battery lasted less than 1 day, here's what I kept using today:
I kept the Facebook Widset logged in all day long
2 hours retrieval interval for Hotmail account
6 hours retrieval interval for Gmail account
Guitar Hero (or Rock Band, not sure hehe) being used for a about 30 minutes
About 50 or 60 text messages received and 30 sent.
Youtube once to watch a trailer for Iron Man 2 (saw an announcement, wanted to check it out hehe)
About 5 minutes of FM Transmitter
It's always under a 3G network

I guess that was all, I'd like if the community could help me with your suggestions to make the most of my N97's battery

ohhh thx guys, i really appreciate ur inputs on this, i'll check that link and will do that search, wanted to ask first rather than search hehehe
