Charged it last week and it was at 4. Switched on later and it was at 6 then I had it on nearly all day today, one minute it's at 2, the next it's at 4.
Anyone know why?

Very odd. Was talking to my parents about this earlier, mum said that one time her phone didn't reconise her battery she turned it off then switched it back on again and it was fine.
Batteries need to see a complete cycle every now and then, regardless of what the instructions/manufacturers say.
I've done it once, but the power was down to one and I really needed my phone.
If the phone did not recognise her battery then how could she switch it off ?
Put the same batteries in a different phone and all is well.
Older phones seemed to be much better on batteries. My old 3510i would go for a week between charges...
