Using linux on the asus TF101, the battery life is A-OK, I could get ~12h with the secondary battery, my main issues has been RAM (1G is barely enough). Without resorting to install linux I would recommend KBOX2 [http://kevinboone.net/kbox2.html http://kevinboone.net/kbox2.html] which offer a lot of useful tools for a developper (vim, gcc, shh ...), and rely on the excellent Android Terminal Emulator. Of course linux provide a more complete ecosystem for developers, but even without replacing android there is still enough to be useful.
