Just to help balance things out, I got my transplanted mPower on Tuesday--October 25--and the battery is behaving well, very similar to my classic's battery. I am completely, absolutely, utterly impressed with the speed of every process, especially handling Email and large documents and web pages. I wouldn't recommend trying this at home, (Grin), but I downloaded over 1300 messages the first day I had the new unit, and it went off without a hitch. I haven't let the battery go totally flat yet, so can't comment on that. When I got the "battery is low" message, I chickened out and plugged it in right away. I can report that the following cards work great with the mPower:
Hitachi 6GB Compact Flash Microdrive Sandisk 1GB SD USB Ultra II, (it's an SD card that also plugs into a standard USB port as a thumb drive) Sandisk 1GB Titanium Cruiser thumb drive I will test my 30GB pocket hard drive and get back to y'all with the results, but I can't remember who the manufacturer is. I do have one question: Is anyone using their mPower with a cell phone using the hayes compatible modem on com1 option? I'm having trouble with mine, so thought I'd see what others have tried. If I can't get it to work, I just might have to break down and get a phone with Bluetooth, this option sounds marvelous!
