It was ON the charger... it doesn't matter, when the phone overheats, it refuses to charge, until it cools down.

Again, it wasn't the battery life itself he seemed most frustrated with--but the fact that it wouldn't even work while plugged in.

Edit: And oh yeah, I'm able to go ~2 days between charges on the TP with minimal usage. Not quite as good, but the battery is only ~2/3 the capacity, and it is a more powerful device.

I hate this defense... it's more powerful, but so what? Just because it's more powerful, doesn't mean it should draw more power...

a 2009 Corvette Z06 has 600hp, and can get nearly 30MPG.

a 1970 Corvette has ~250hp, and gets <15MPG.

Same goes with laptops, phones, etc.
