Re: A little tough Love about battery issues.
My battery now lasts about a day, with moderate use. But that is only with Bluetooth, Wifi, and GPS turned off. I think I noticed the biggest differant with GPS off (Settings/Phone/Services/Location setting). Before turning BT and GPS off mine would drop 10-15% an hour without use (yes I know the gauge might not be accurate but I never made it more then 6-8 hour without shutdown).
I also experience more lockups overnight using htc chargers then using motorola (which are only 550w). I also experience extreme heat and battery drain while on charger if I have GPS and BT on while talking on the phone.
As a side note, I also purchased from BB and my neighbor is manager for a larger BB. He said they sold 6 and received 2 returns from poor battery life, as well as 5 other people looking to return units from other stores because all the local stores are out of stock. They had 8 to start with. (sorry haven't talked to him in almost 2 weeks to hear an update).
