I have my Dual Shock 3 since november/december(don't know the exact date), and i'm very glad i imported it from Japan to the Netherlands(where i live). I have the feeling the battery life is about the same as the SIXAXIS. Maybe a bit shorter, but not much.
About the strength of rumble, it depends on which game. Developers don't care if the battery life will be shorter when they program stronger rumble for their game. All i know is that rumble isn't very strong with titles like Ratchet & Clank but it is very strong with Unreal Tournamant 3, specially when you blow up the enemy base. Just as strong as the Dual Shock 2, but in a way it feels different.
I don't think it's a different technology, but it feels a bit different. Not better of worse, i guess. All i can say is that i'm happy i bought one cause now i know how much i missed it. I'm already using it with the following games that i have:
Super Stardust HD
Resistance
Motorstorm
Ratchet & Clank Future
Unreal Tournament 3(imported)
Uncharted
Gran Turismo 5 Prologue(imported)
Warhawk
