haha.. (I just get more confused)
ok..so MAX is the MAX I can 'constantly' draw? and not a MAX 'pulse' drain....right? (meaning I can only get that much current draw for a brief period of time)
(still a bit confused on your other comment of 220mA can be delivered because its rated 2C)?..
in relation to the new comment.. "You wont however get the full 110mah capacity at the 2C rate, but at the 0.2C rate you will."
(sorry for being thick here..it'll sink in eventually) 
the 0.2C rate (or whatever) worthless to me.... 20mA mean nothing in this project scope..
so,...
2C = 220mA (2 x capacity)
1C = 110mA (1 x capacity)
0.2C = (roughly) 20mA (.2 x capacity)
right?
if MAX discharge is 2C (220mA)... this can ONLY be given/pulled for 30 minutes?
110mA (which is it is rated for).. will give me 110mA for 1 hour (or so)
and pulling 20mA (0.2C) will give me 20mA for around 5 hours or so...
am I correct in all this so far?
*I dont think so because you say this: "You wont however get the full 110mah capacity at the 2C rate"
do you just mean it wont run for the full 'hour'? I'm pulling 2C (220ma)??
so if I want to pull the full 110mA (or close) form the battery pack.. it'll run 1 hour (tops)..
I think i can live with that... since it wont be @ full draw (80mA) for more than a button press. then back down to its normal 'power needs'...
thanks!
