EX1 battery drain repaired

FWIW I sent my EX1 in to have the battery drain problem repaired and thought I'd share the experience.
After being transfered from one dept to another four times, I finally got the correct place to send the camera to. I was told that when the EX1 is turned off, it actually goes into standby mode, and that is why the battery drained so quickly. I mailed the camera to Los Angeles, and was told there would be about a ten day turn around. My camera was returned seven weeks later. The battery drain issue was fixed, but they didn't reconnect the external power supply jack, so it is going back. At least this time they are paying the shipping charges.
I could have lived with the battery drain issue, but I leave the camera with friends to use on their two year old twin boys when I'm not using it. They are point and shoot people, so I wanted to make it easy for them to use.
