I just had to put new batteries in to type this! Mine last less than a week, but this only started when I set the iMac to not sleep, so the hard drive would remain available from my LAN. But even with turning that back off, even now after the firmware update, they still last only from one session to the next - a few days tops. Thanks for the info though - I'll be happy to try a different mouse to see if that helps the keyboard batteries. So, I got the firmware update, but it did not fix the issue.
