    I just got my T250P/L last night and charged it up completely. I have the power management set for Vaio Optimized but I am only getting like around 4 hours of battery life. Any suggestions? Also, I can't use the touchpad for scrolling anymore, not sure what happened. Any ideas? Thanks for the help.

    I think you need to go to the ultra battery life (or whatever it is called) option. VAIO Optimized assumes you are watching DVD and stuff, so the screen brightness and the DVD drive are both on.

    Not sure about the touchpad.
