Using the Internet does seem to require a lot of energy.<br /><br />Whereas with my Razr, which was just a phone, I could go for days without checking the battery because I hardly ever received or made a phone call.<br /><br />The newer 3Gs, which also costs $100 more, shows you the percentage of battery power you have left. <br /><br />It's also a lot bigger to carry around than the Razr. Granted, it's in my shoulderbag but if I wanted to carry it in a pocket, it's a little too big. <br /><br />On the plus side, it does everything it's supposed to do very well. I can surf the 'Net from anywhere and calls seem to come in clear. (The two or three I've had!) <br /><br />I know a lot of people in New York City complain of dropped calls with AT&T but I've never had a problem and I've been with them for years. Maybe there aren't as many users in Providence.<br /><br />And honestly, I'm probably just paranoid about the battery. I have a car charger so I'm never far away from being able to recharge it. <br /><br />Plus, it's nice if I'm at the doctor's or someplace where I have to wait around for awhile or if I'm out doing errands for awhile and want to check my e-mail. <br /><br />It's not an aboslute necessity for me but it's fun to have.Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16076517542540421210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1912669500934497251.post-9902589240911975372010-02-10T20:35:33.113-05:002010-02-10T20:35:33.113-05:00One of these days, I'm going to get an iPhone....One of these days, I'm going to get an iPhone.
