Hi Nicky,

Battery life is shocking.  I have darkened the screen as far as it will go,
and I even turn off voiceover when I'm not using the device.  This goes some
way to alleviating the problem.  I've got into the habit of plugging it in
whenever I'm near a power outlet or USB port.

I use it rather a lot, particularly in terms of browsing the net, checking
mail on the go, that sort of thing.

One comment I'd make is that (aside from accessibility features) I find the
O2 network to be (bluntly) sub-standard.  They say it is a 3g network, but
to be honest I find my phone dropping back to EDGE rather a lot.  I hear
better things about vodafone, but I don't know too much about their price
plans as they compare to O2.

Dónal,

How much battery time do you get from the phone and would you be a heavy
user of it?

Cheers, Nicky.
