Oh, and it looks like it must have been an Incredible user who was complaining about the battery tests being unfair. Ok so I know the Incredible is a smaller sized phone, so maybe that's why they didn't put a larger battery in it. But it has a Super Amoled (read, battery eating) screen right? So that brings me right back to, 'why didn't they go bigger'?
Surely they must have tested the phone and knew it was getting less than 5 hours talk time while their direct competition was getting almost twice that... didn't they care? It seems to me that these phone manufactureres aren't aware how important to us consumers battery life really is.
You know how every generation seems to have something the previous generation never would have thought possible? Our grandparents had cars they could get in and drive around in without needing a horse to pull it. Our parents could get in an airplane and fly across the Pacific ocean in less than a days time. We had walkmans and portable mini tv's that allowed us to carry our entertainment around where ever we wanted to go. And this generation has telephones that are as powerful as computers from the 80's that used to occupy entire warehouses... I can envision my grandchildren having phones that come with fully charged batteries that don't need charged or replaced for the next 4 to 5 years (like my wristwatch). But until that day comes, make my phone a bit thicker, and give me the big-gulp please!
