Did you play with the alarm feature of the IT2006 beta ?

If you did, it might be the cause of the battery drain because after
enabling one time the alarm, even if it is off, the "suspend" feature is
still used by 770 when trying to power it off. The only way to disable
it is to crash 770 (or maybe remove battery, I didn't try that) and get
it to fully reboot.
