Pronto batery life



Hi guys.

For Xmas, I got a 2MB Pronto, and have noticed one or two odd things.
* The AA's that came in the box only lasted about 2 weeks.  I did do
a lot of learning and screen programming so wasn't too worried.

* I replaced the batteries with 4 Duracells 2 weeks ago and the battery
life
graphic in the setup screen shows its lost 2 bars of power.  Is this
normal?

* The contrast/brightness starts off very dim when I start using it for the
first time in the evening, but by the end of the night I find myself having
to reduce the brightness.  Is this normal?

* Is it possible to get dust or rubbish stuck in the edges of the screen
which causes the screen to be continusly pressed?  Or don't touchscreens
work like that?

Thanks (Should I be asking the peeps at remotecentral)
