My Playbook is just laying on my table and all the power is gone without using it.
Anyone else have this problem?
Is there a solution?

Trisect, this may/may not be the same issue, but are you running either the AppGameKit Player or any app developed with AppGameKit? I ask this because I have the same issue with Android and the reason for it is because AppGameKit apps use around 50% CPU (both in the background and whilst the app is active)... Are you able to check CPU consumption on PB?

I have left my PlayBook out all night and barely noticed a drop in battery. I also have noticed that if I don't Force Stop a TGC app on my Android it will destroy my battery. So, I guess that could be it.

I've noticed that running an app on the PB through the player does seem to eat up the battery a little more, but when I deploy my app using Momentics as a native app then it seems to hardly touch the battery.
If I get time I will maybe try a few tests.
