The battery on this phone is ridiculous. I'm coming from a 700p to this phone which is giving nothing but battery problems and weird bugs. First of all 6 days ago I changed my 700p to the 6800. I left the battery in the phone and put it in my laptop bag so that I could use it as a PDA in case something didn't transfer to my 6800. Yesterday after not being able to stand all the problems with the 6800 I reached into my laptop bag and guess what the Palm was still on with only 13% of the battery gone. My 6800 will eat 13% of it's battery in an hour and half with only bluetooth and the phone on this is asinine.

For everyone saying turn off bluetooth that's just stupid, I turn off the little switch and wi-fi still stays on. I then go into Comm Manger and turn it off and it turns off. But it must still be on because there is no reason with just the phone on and bluetooth that this phone can go dead from when I take it off the charger at 7:30 and at about 4:00pm with me only being on the phone for less than 10 minutes and answering 3 text messages. The rest of the time it sits in the holster with the keypad locked and the screen off.

Am I the only one who finds this nuts!?
