possible battery life tip

I found my battery life to last longer when I charge it via usb. I let sit at my computer overnight and it lasts way longer than when I charge it via an outlet. Maybe it's just me. Hope this helps anyone that's willing to try it. :)

Your battery isn't lasting longer - it's staying near full charge. USB charging is the only way to trickle (automatically top-off) charge Evo. Standard AC/DC charge goes to full then shuts off.

Glad it works for you. I just charge via AC/DC though because it's faster than the USB port. Actually, DC (via car) charging is the fastest because DC current is one-way in continuous while AC current alternates on in-out cycles.
