I have a Blackberry Bold. The other day I was messing around with my son's iPhone and decided I would get one to see how it works. So far, I like it very much... EXCEPT battery life SUCKS! Took off full night charge this morning at 7am and already at 60%. Those of you that have iPhones.. what are you doing to help this? I have wifi off, Bluetooth off and just now set active sync to manual. - Bob Fronk ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
