Reading between the lines of Apple's claimed runtimes, I would dare to say that the 80GB will have the same runtime as the 60GB.
With generation 5.5 Apple's claimed runtime only increased for movies, not audio, implying not a battery improvement, or a general hardware improvement, but a backlight or Broadcom gain.
If the backlight is less power-hungry than before, this would probably help mpegplayer runtimes, though.  Otherwise it's likely a wash for Rockbox.
