| Fuji Hibernation... NOT Just discovered, and confirmed through Fuji tech support, that placing a Fuji tablet in hibernation still consumes power. Placing the T4215 in hibernation results in dead battery after one day. So, essentially, there is no hibernation option. Beverly Howard [MS MVP-Mobile Devices] |

| Re: Fuji Hibernation... NOT >> discovered, and confirmed through Fuji tech support, that placing a Fuji tablet in hibernation still consumes power. Placing the T4215 in hibernation results in dead battery after one day. << Found a workaround for this in case it has bitten anyone else; In the control panel, there is an applet named "Radio Controls" which allows toggling the wifi and bluetooth on and off. place a shortcut for this on the desktop before hibernation, open "Radio Controls" and set both wifi and bluetooth to "OFF" Initial tests (one full day) indicate that the battery retains it's charge level during hibernation. hth, Beverly Howard [MS MVP-Mobile Devices] |

| Re: Fuji Hibernation... NOT >> wifi toggle switch on the side of the computer which I assume will work as well << Unbelievably, turning the wifi physical switch off _does not work_ to prevent battery drain when the computer is put into hibernation. The battery is still drained if the Wifi or Bluetooth is "on" in the radio control utility, but, as previously posted, if both Wifi and BT are turned off using the radio control utility, the battery is not drained during hibernation.
