So how is it? I just sold my iphone, and im spoiled by my 4 day use, charge twice a week blackberry battery. Where does the G1 fall under?

Haha, you're probably going to have to charge your battery at least once a day until they put out firmwares to fix battery issues. I have a bb pearl, and I'm going to miss only having to charge it every couple days.

but the good news is you can get extra batteries and swap them out on the fly

waste of money.

the G1 battery goes a little quick.. I was playing with one for about 45 minuets, and using the maps, 3g and youtube applications and downloading/installing from the market and managed to bring it down to 81% from 99. Im not sure if WiFi/bluetooth was on.

Well Luckily for me.. I already have a charger at work that will work for charging this phone.., and All I do is work and sleep, I should not have to worry about mine dying.. But I still want to get an extra battery..

I will miss my Cect phone.. I charge it once every eight to twelve days..

I'll be used to it I think... I give my iphone pretty heavy usage everyday and simply throw it on the charger nightly and I'm good to go. Somedays it dies before the end of my work day at 4:30 if I'm going nuts on it all day... but I bring my charger to work, so I'll just do the same with my G1 and be a happy camper

No battery cares for me!! Now I'll just have to invest in a car charger and I'll be set on all fronts.

Yea, a buddy of mine told me that he has to log out of aim when he is done sending an IM on the Iphone, because otherwise his battery would be dead in two or three hours.. That's just with the app running in the background.. not even playing on the thing..
