LOL!
Same thing here with my TP2 right now which I leave in my car. It is serving as my Tom Tom GPS currently.
I already have a cheap battery charger shown in this auction:
Battery Desktop Charger For Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Pro2 | eBay
I use this at home and have not had issues with it. Worth the low price.
Also I use NEW OEM batteries I bought for cheap as found on Ebay here:
OEM HTC RHOD160 DASH 3G TILT 2 TOUCH PRO 2 SNAP BATTERY | eBay
No problems with these either. They switch in and out of my phones frequently because I dial a lot during the day!
I haven't noticed service area problems affecting my life on the phone. I usually change out the battery 2 or 3 times per day because it seems like the phone is always on. One thing I do miss from the TP2 as how easy it is to change a battery. A little more work to flip up the screen on the Arrive to remove the cover. Oh well
