Hi All,
I've just purchased from Target the new 16GB Nano, but for the 2 days of using the radio feature, the battery only lasts about 2 -3 hours. Is this normal for a radio to suck the life out of it, or is it time to return it.

One test you could try to see if the battery is operating normally is to play your music for a few hours to see how long it lasts. If it lasts the advertised time (check Apple's website), then it would probably be fair to say that the radio is a big battery drain. If it doesn't last more than 2-3 hours playing your own music, then I'd take it in.

You can never go wrong by doing the right thing.

4 out of 3 people have trouble with fractions.

There are three kinds of people, those who are good at math and those who aren't.

There are two kinds of computer users: those who have lost data and those who are about to — backup your Mac!

Since this is a very new product, you should call Apple and ask what the expected battery life should be. You only just bought it.
