And one question, i've just been browsing the forum for battery tips and things. I read 'use wifi when available.' i have wifi at home, but just wondering what the advantages are?
I received my Inc. about a week ago. BTW, it is The. MOST. Amazing. Phone. Ever. It truely is hard to put down. Call quality has been great. Battery life has been a non issue. The screen is unbelievable. Overall, the phone is, uh, well, Incredible!
On about the 3rd full charge cycle, I ran the phone from 7:00a.m. until about 1:00a.m. the next morning before it finally ran out. And it continues to get better after more charge cycles. If you are careful about what apps you install, you shouldn't have to worry about the battery. Of course, that all depends on your personal usage. With that said, I did buy a 1500mah batter off of ebay just to have some spare power in case I couldn't get to a charger. I havn't received it yet, though.
On the WiFi issue. From what I have read, wifi uses LESS battery than 3G. So, the recommendation is to use wifi if you can. I have wifi at the office and at home. After I set up my phone to connect to them both, whenever I get to the office or home, my phone will automatically switch to wifi and turn off the 3G radio to conserve battery. I have wifi and GPS turned on all of the time. The phone only uses them when an app requests it, so it is not actually draining power all of the time.
Keep the faith folks. I know you have heard it before, but it is completely worth the wait. The memory of the agonizing wait fades quickly when you power the phone on and use it the first time.
