should be better: Axim X5 and 3400mAH battery ...

Archived from groups: comp.sys.handhelds (More info?)

Just recently got a heavy duty battery for my X5. I charged it up as per
instructions, and ran it till it "needed" charging. After giving it a full
charge, I did not touch the X5 for maybe 4 days or so. I was quite surprised
to find that I could not turn it on .... except to see the warning that the
main battery was "extremely low' and that it was going into hibernation !

I have heard in the past that there were issues regarding battery life, but
this seems
ridiculous ! This is the big battery !

Are there any fixes ? What makes the battery run down like that?

Thanks !
