Re: A little tough Love about battery issues.

Interesting thread. I've only had my TP a few days, so am still tweaking and finding things to turn off. I had a PPC6700 for a couple of years before this, so am somewhat used to WinMo/PDA usage. So far, I love the TP, but hate the drastically reduced battery life. Stock batteries in each unit. I cannot get through the day with just a few 5-10 minute phone calls and maybe a couple of text messages. No TV, GPS, BT, etc. Kind of afraid to use them much given the battery life from just making a few calls. But I just turned the GPS location off after reading about it above, which I also did in my 6700. So maybe that will make a big difference (I hope). I've done all the other reg hacks and turning things off that I've read about to this point, and I don't use push email. Kind of frustrating at this point.

No real heat issues with the TP, but it does get a little warm at times. So did the 6700, though.
