I had my iPad (v1) running iCab browser in full-screen mode (with icons disabled and 0% opacity). Airport mode meant the battery only dropped 40% in over 5 hours.</p> <p>The clock was made with some CSS radial gradients, the hands with transformed rectangles with border radius, and the pimpin dollar sign set in <a href="http://www.suitcasetype.com/index.php?part=fonts&font=26">Kulturista Bold</a>.</p> <p>My super power?
