I'd rather tether via a cable though if anyone knows how that can be accomplished. Now if only I can find a media player that will keep my place in my audio books I think my last need will be met. Well battery life hasn't been the best after coming from the TP2, but I've come to terms with the fact that it probably has to do with powering a 1GHz processor and 8GB of onboard memory. I've just learned to turn off stuff as I'm not using it, leaving everything on all the time was a luxury I had with the TP2. And pro tip, the TP2 battery fits into the Inc and works like a champ. Its just slightly more juice but I'll take all I can get.

you can use the cable the instructions are in the pdf file of the manual that came with the device...I saw it somewhere also on xda wiki where you have to setup a dial setting on the PC for the phone...it's old school and very doable...I tether since I am a tech and need to test people PC so this way I do not have to make a dialup connection on their unit...just connect via wireless. I also can secure the wireless as well from the phone..
Stock battery sucks...a lot of people like me got the Seidio Inn 1750mAH battery over the 1300 that it comes with... Exact same size and excellent battery life. I think Verizon released a larger one now but it was late in the game. This battery is assume...
