    Question Anyone have tips on preserving battery life?



    I would like to know if any of the more experienced users of Apple gear have tips on preserving the IPAD's battery life over an extended time.

    After 6 month's will it still be 10+ hours?

    Thanx wot fan, that did the trick. I have not been doing the trickle charge on my other device, now I won't make that mistake on the IPAD when it arrives.

    So far the reviews are saying the battery actually far exceeded the 10 hours....so I'm thinking 10 hours is video/games or heavy web browsing....so music and books probably more like 20-30

    I would think you would want to actually use it and experience the battery life before starting threads about how to extend the life.
