I've held in my hand since I hit puberty.
Hi all. Started lurking here when the Epic was announced and picked one up at BB yesterday. First Android and first Sprint phone. Coming from an iPhone 3Gs.
I'm blown away by this phone in every respect. Screen, keyboard, customization etc. One early problem appears to be the battery. It had no juice at all out of the box. I charged it to full in about 2 hours and set up my Exchange mail and POP3 mail. When I left work at 6pm it was about 90%. I made one call on the way home and just played with some settings after dinner. By 9pm it was completely dead.
I suspect 3 possibilities:
1. The Exchange connection is causing the drain(happend on my iPhone before they released a patch)
2. defective battery
3. I noticed the signal strength fluctuating quite a bit at home so maybe that's causing the rapid drain?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
P.s What a great forum compared to the whiners over at the Torch forum on Crackberry.
