Re: battery = horrible less than 4 hours standby

I live in a shit coverage area where it flip flops between roaming and 3G. I can get about 14 hours with what I consider heavy usage: lots of texting, randomly surfing the net, playing a few games, etc. I did all of that with the stock battery. My Seidio battery came in the mail shortly after I got the phone from Best Buy. I got about 18 hours with my first initial full charge. Right now I'm trying to run it through a few full charge/complete discharge cycles before I mess with it again. I haven't really done much else to compensate for battery life except I just turned the always on data setting off. I'll see how much that helps. When I had my Touch Pro I kept it plugged in aaaaalllll the time because it would die at the drop of a hat, sometimes for no apparent reason.

Ahh, Windows Mobile makes us all love Android just that much more!
