Is it just me or are most phones starting to switch over to mini usb? Either way, I know several ways to charge my phone without having to bring my own charger. people just have htem hanging around. again i agree with majority stating that although the battery life isn't that great, the charge time is incredible... i charged my phone from 60 - 90 percent in a few minutes... (no joke)
Lastly, I had my phone on with 3G enabled (no gps, wifi, or bluetooth), and used it decently with texts, emails, browsing, and market browsing. I did turn on the GPS a couple times to show off STREET view to my friends and co workers ( yes i know most of you have done it to), and managed to go about 12 - 14 hours using about half the battery. that's seriously not bad for using 3g. my old sidekick LX had a far worse battery, but i guess i'm just used to having a smartphone battery.
either way, i agree with what people are saying ... ANYCUT will save your life... battery life that is! and yeah, try not to use locale or anything that randomly accesses your GPS. either way, this battery is not at all that bad as people are saying, and i can't wait for updates to increase battery life...
