I read a few pages back about battery life somebody posted some helpful info...

But Im LOVING IT TOO....

My biggest concern isn't as much the battery as, what kind of damage is it doing to the backlight being on 24/7. Because of that I reboot my phone into WM during the night for sure. Hopefully that gets sorted out fairly quickly, can't be good for the backlight to be on all the time.

Do you handle the APK files the same as you would handle CAB files on the Windows system?

It might be like OTA's for Blackberrys the OS reads it and installs ie themes,apps etc. Might be click and go...sweet

I think we are saying the same thing...lol

For APK on your SD, you would need to use something like Astro to install the file, and have unknown sources checked in Applications.
