Re: How's your battery life?
My battery life has been much better than my EVO 4G i got a whole day at Seaworld yesterday and took a bunch of pics and videos and did a lot of facebook updating.

The only battery complaint I have is that it seems like it takes a really long time to charge. The light turns green to indicate a full charge. If you take it off of the charger for 1 minute and plug it back in the light does not go green for 45 mins.

Re: How's your battery life?
I'm getting pretty impressive battery life. I have noticed that it's dependent on signal strength because I went out in the boonies for a field repair at a church, and being in a fringe area I went from 100% (charging in the car on the way) to 55% in about 2 hours. At home today, off the charger at 10AM and down to 80% at 2:48PM. Not bad at all. I was getting about 15 hours a charge with my Hero with a custom ROM, kernel and setCPU and I'm getting the same or better so far with the 3VO.

Re: How's your battery life?
since we are on the topic. Does anyone know if the phone will charge faster plugged into the provided wall adapter, or from a usb port on a computer.. i would assume the wall but I have been wrong before.

Re: How's your battery life?
That depends on the usb port, if it's usb 1.1, 2.0, 2.0 high speed or 3. If it's high speed 2.9 or 3 you'd get something comparable to a wall socket. They have a higher current and throughput, the wall will give you the cleanest and most sufficient power though.

Your wall adapter. You will most likely only be able to trickle-charge with your computer.
