Bluetooth on will obviously drain the battery more than if it is not but I never found it a problem on my T68i and certainly no problem on my T610. I use my HBH-30 and also bluetooth to my ipaq many times a day.

test it.
leave bluetooth on for a bit, and if it drains the battery to quickly, and goes dead within an hour... dont leave it switched on..

On my t68i I could set bluetooth to "automatic" so it only turned on when it wae needed. I havent seen this on my t610.
Maybe its "automatic" automaticly.

That question was already answered, MixiN :-) But i don't think masseur leaves it on when he sleeps... So forget about 24/7 :-D

MaThIbUs, well fortunately I don't sleep with you so you can't comment on that!
but actually I do leave bluetooth on all the time however (and I am sure I have said this many times including just yesterday) I don't try to make my battery do the marathon... my phone sits on the charger every night. There does seem to be some fascination in making batteries last 3, 4 or 5 days but surely we do all go home every night?
So for Snow-Munki I wouldnt worry and just leave it on all the time!

ahhh,
but i thought its better for batteries to use it all up and then charge it.
Its bad to charge a half charged battery, if that makes sence.. or is that no longer the case?

no, not lithium ion batteries, there is no memory effect. that only applies to nicad and to some extent Nickel Metal Hydride batteries.

I gotta confess something, masseur... Actually I'm your wife
