Well guys suspecting that my ipad battery is crappy I decided to test the battery by timing it...
The iPad is brand new from a apple store, it has cycle 3 time, that means that since I got it I have charged and drained it 3 time.
Today's been the third time.

Test 1: Music Playback
Charged at 100% (time left on charger: 9h left overnight)
loaded an album on the ipad that will be playing on shuffle mode and repeat with the screen off, it will be playing trough a headset with audio set at 50%
1h of playing :100%
2h of playing :100%
5h of playing :100%
8h of playing :99%
Wow? 1 percent of battery after 8 hours of playing....
Note: It seams that my wifi is not working as well, if not at all while I am using the player... Need too look into it

Will keep on updating
