then there is something wrong with your phone, my friend

granted i am using the 2g/3g switching applet but here is an example of my day on the phone today

got up at 7:30, took it off the charger, it was at 96%

updated to 1.1 OTA over the hotel WIFI (which has bad signal and it is very slow). Update took about 30-45 minutes while I was getting ready.

Got on the bus with terrible traffic, started playing with the phone (mostly going through my MP3s and making playlists while listening to music). 45 minutes later I made it to the office (mad traffic indeed)

Used the phone to make a few calls, received a few too. Probably about 30-40 minutes talk time total. Took some notes but nothing special. Sent around 20 SMS

Finished work at around 8 and got taxi back to the hotel. Got to the hotel restaurant and on the WIFI browsing the web until my food came (20-25 minutes).

Got to my room and checked out the web and downloaded some apps etc. Browsed around for about 1.5 hours.

lshal reports a current of 371 left, or 29%.

I don't think that's too bad, given I installed the firmware on this charge!

Maybe get your device to nokia and see what they say?
