Does it have problems of dropping your bluetooth headset every couple of days so that you have to pair it several times a week like the ppc6700 does? With the standard battery, does using the internet or the built in wifi suck the life out of your battery very quickly? Is there an extended life battery for it and is it a fat one requiring a separate back like the ppc6700? And I guess last but not least, how reliable is it in terms of picking up sprint signal? The first mogul I saw had a hard time picking up the sprint signal.

1. I dunno use bluetooth so I cant answer that one for you.

2. With any battery and device using the internet and wifi quickly burns your battery. best thing to do is flash a custom rom that suits your needs. and an extended abttery usually does need a different backplate. although ive seen some that are the same size but carry a bit more juice.

3. In my particular area I have horrible EVDO reception (which accounts for horrible battery life) so I had to force my phone into 1x. Play around with the phone a few days and see how the signal goes for you, and if it jumps abck and forth, you might have to force it into EVDO or 1x
