was the problem with the pocket pro's battery when the screen is locked, ever fixed?
title says it all, I think...
Battery lasts months when I turn it on and off, but when I simply lock the screen, it will only last a handful of days I haven't updated the firmware since late 09' or early 2010 |

As I recall, there was a sleep problem with the early software release(s?), but it was fixed. See if you can find newer software from astak or mybebook.com, and it should sole the problem.

I personally run the latest LBook V5 firmware on my Pocket Pro, I have found that one to be the best. |

But look for "V5" in the name. The top download (93M) is the latest I still see battery consumption (tho not anywhere as bad as the early Astak releases) when locked. I like this release of Lbook |

My mom was having this problem. Hers turned out to be a micro sc card issue. When I sent her a class 2 to try instead of a class 6 the issue went away. They were the same brand, Transcend.
Don't know if it will help, but thought I would pass it on. S |
