Running 21806b on Verizon...

Battery : I'm not noticing a battery drain at all. The only time I've had bad battery performance, was when I had my phone checking my home email every 5 minutes. Changing that to every 30 (or more) minutes, greatly increased the battery life. The same would apply to anything that accesses the internet frequently. The weather for example. (I have mine set to every 15 minutes, and am happy with that). If you run GPS, that drains your battery... so if you use a "desktop" GPS program that updates every xx minutes, stop that! Also, I've noticed with the last few builds, that after the first reboot, blue-tooth is turned on. Turning that off will also help greatly.

Memory: Make sure you are running in High Memory mode. Also check that clicking on X ends a program, rather than "minimizing" it. You can also change the home screen to remove items, and you will gain more memory. Running weather, activesync, mnotes client (to sync my phone with Lotus Notes, which work forces me to use), etc, I find I have PLENTY of memory available. As you can see in the screenshot, I remove the "phone, voicemail etc" options, as the cHome option covers them all.

Have a good one.
