    I'm at 92% after one hour, from a full charge, so mine is well within the ten hours stated, just like my iPad 1.

    Is your ipad entirely new? It might take a few charges before the battery is working 100%.

    Just wondering if you are using the latest iOS 4.3.1? I've read posts who have said it improved their battery life.

    I've heard the 3G on the iPad 2 kills battery more quickly. Have you tried testing it out with airplane mode and wifi-on?

    I ONLY use 3G as it's faster than my 1.5m DSL wifi, so 3G is on 100% of the time and I still get over ten hours on my iPad 2. At 90% now with about an hour and 15 minutes use of web, email, and forums.
