the road. Below are some tips to help you save battery power.
Warning: Using backlight, wireless connectivity, and peripherals while on battery
power will substantially reduce battery power.

 Stop wireless connectivity, Bluetooth, 802.11b/g or GSM/GPRS that is not in use.
 Go to Start | Settings | System, and tap Backlight. Refer to 1.4.1 Adjust the LCD

In the Battery tab, you can always monitor the charging status.
In the Advanced tab, you may specify automatic turn-off times for the mobile
computer to conserve power. When it is turned off, the system is in Suspend mode,
which is ready for use but not in use.
