> This phone has the best battery life of any I've used to this point. I come home at night with plenty of battery left.

This is the singularly, most unbelievable thing I experience with my "new" smartphone (iPhone 3GS). I was used to going 1-2 weeks without charging my dumb phone -- Now I have to think about it every 1-2 days. My smart phone is great for internet, and is great as a phone; as long as I charge it every night.




In a way it's easier though. Now I instinctively remember to plug in my phone every night, whereas on a dumb phone I wouldn't have a good routine for charging it and would often have it die at inopportune times.


Heck I have to do the same with mine but really if you just plug it in before you go to bed it should be fine.

And if I really wanted longer battery time I could just pickup a dump phone with the contents of my small change jar.
