Re: Htc touch pro talk time?

Wow, this is becoming a heated debate. Okay guys, let me end your discussion here. This goes for any cell phone.

Talk time battery life is heavily dependent on your position relative to the closest tower. When a phone is far away, it is wasting extra juice staying connected (boosting its own reception) and trying to connect to the next one. Theres no use in arguing about .35 hours guys, that can be the usual plus and minus amounts when calculating these things.

My point is, with backlight off, no wifi, and a connection within feet of the nearest tower, whos to say that you wont get 5 hours with the touch pro? These test are done only to give you an ear shot of what you can expect in real world settings, and most of them are done in stationary positions rather than someone traveling while talking like most of us do. RELAX EVERYBODY! Its just numbers.
