I can leave my HTC Touch online all day at my desk at home- not make a single call or browse the web or even go near my phone and the battery is about 50%

conclusion the battery life sucks on the diamond - could be a radio, could be bad programming, could be a physical flaw in the battery for all I know - but since I have my screen turned off and both run the same version of WM(after running a custom rom update on the Touch) the fault lies with our Diamond, not with our stars.

supposition - I would expect a $500 phone to have BT for voice communications to work as well as a free phone. I would expect after the Mogul BT fiasco that someone would test to see if th BT worked properly on the Diamond - but expecting Sprint or HTC to test their phones before selling them is apparantly unreasonble because who would ever use a phone long enough during testing to find out the battery life sucks or a BT headset sounds like crap when paired with this phone.
