Re: Touch Pro Release Info (consolidated criticalaudioinc info)

I've yet to hear anyone, ever, mention the need to correct the most fundamental flaw of testing battery consumption with cell phones.

Sure you might get x hrs talk time under optimal conditions, but how many hrs with semi-standard conditions, poor conditions, and utterly dismal conditions?

Lets, for the sake of discussion, say semi-standard was starting from taking the new phone straight out of the box (no fundamental changes) and turning on BT to make a bt call while the signal strength averaging at 50%. Lets say the battery was new, and fully charged and the question is how long can the call be sustained...
My guess is about half the rated talk time. Should be easy enough to test...although still not likely to happen. lol

Also, should test for long term heat damaging. Do whatever it takes to make the phone as hot as possible from it's own sources and see what happens to it. Call it while on vibrate and see when it burns out...
