But between OSX, the iPod and the iPhone (and maybe a couple other i-Devices) they really have impressed me. I don't own a single Apple product, nor do I own Apple stock, not that I have to defend myself.

Sure customer satisfaction is up, but QC isn't that much better at Apple. That's the point I'm trying to make. They suck almost as bad as everyone else with QC, but they actually take care of you when you have problems.

Won't happen. Battery cuts off, as everyone knows, when there is too much heat. The reason this happens is so explosions don't happen.

I don't have the huge drop offs after only a matter of seconds/minutes... and it takes hours for it to drop to 90% then hours to drop to 80%... and so on... I get a little over a days worth of life with light/moderate use, which is exactly what the tech reviews reported. For those that have the driver and are having problems, i'm wondering if you're still getting your days worth of a charge, even though there's a huge reading drop off at the beginning... an immediate drop in reading can be mentally draining, but if the lower 80% is lasting longer then maybe the full life isn't so bad. If it's only lasting half a day with light/mod use then you should worry.

I think some of the issue is like hypochondria with some people. People who have made themselves believe there is a battery life issue and who keep staring at the meter. I just ignore battery life until I start getting yelled at for low batter, which usually doesn't happen unless i use my phone a lot, or skip a night charging. There are still issues that need to be addressed, but I don't think it is a huge problem for as many people as are complaining.
