[QUOTE="Aptmunich, post: 48707, member: 3850"] Even just changing songs often will cause you to have less than optimal battery life, due to the fact that it has to turn on the hard drive and load a new stack of songs every time you do... If you NEED the full 12hours of battery life, simply set up a few long playlists that you want to listen to, and then select them and stick to listening to those. That'll save you the most battery life, as the harddrive will never have to turn on without it being absolutely nessicary..(sh+t I can't even spell any more...) But if you're just worried about your iPod being broken or abnormal, relax: the 12hours are achieved by setting the ipod to play short 128Kbps files and not touching it all day - hardly 'typical usage'...
