when I'm in dallas, I can usually get thought the day with 40-50% remaining. however when I travel to west texas, my phone is dying by 5-6 pm. and that is with all same apps installed/running, and basically same usage pattern.

btw, this post was done using swype 3.9. I've had some version of swype for a few months now, and could not function without it.

I thought I bought this phone for the physical keyboard, but now that I have swype, i see no need for physical anymore.

Can you post your Swype cab? I'd like to try it out...

Thanks!
