I think alot of users with the Pro might have been coming from a non PDA type of phone. I know me personally had a Treo and hated it. I went back to my Sanyo M1 which I loved. This is my first WM device and I gotta say I love it. Everything the phone is capable of doing is worth having to keep the phone on a charger as much as possible. I am even thinking about switching to that 3000mAh extended battery. So what if it makes the phone a little bigger? If the phone lasts twice as long on one charge then Its worth it. The thing is like a laptop that fits in my pocket. So why not?
Even with the standard battery I get pretty good life out of it. I surf a little (maybe 15mins total) if that, I rarely watch videos, and I text like a maniac. I also hardly TALK on the phone. However the ONLY gripe I have with the phone is the heating of the battery. I just cant see how that would be good for the device with something getting THAT hot back there?
I work with electronics everyday, and one thing I know is HEAT is not good for them. lol
If HTC could find a way to make their battery last as long as the Iphone, then they would put the Iphone outta business. Hands down a better phone then the Iphone.
Just my 2 cents.
