So I got a new ipod touch yesterday, and I find that whenever I'm online or playing games, the battery goes down a lot quicker than I think it should.... Is that normal?

Like how fast are you talking about? It's supposed to be like 5 hours on WiFi, right?

Well, if you're playing online, your battery would most likely get drained quicker. For example, on my Nintendo DS Lite, if I play online, the battery gets drained faster than it would if I were playing single player games. (Playing apps in general and using WiFi will use your battery up quicker than if you were just playing music.)

Here are some tips if you need them o-o
