When my friend got the G1, he had the same power problem. After doing some research online, he found a site that suggested draining the battery completely and then recharging it fully before turning it back on again.

 

He turned on everything he could that drains the battery (GPS, WiFi, etc.) and played a game until it turned itself off from lack of power, then charged it overnight. He noticed a marked improvement in battery life the next day, so he did it again. It does "cap out" after a while (obviously, no battery is infinite), but doing it once or twice can help a lot. He now has no complaints about the battery life.

 

Also, make sure you are turning things like GPS and WiFi off when you're not using them. :smileyhappy:

 

Hope this helps!
