I can easily go all day (my useage day is usually 7:00am-9:00pm) on a full charge and that's with heavy Internet use, moderate emailing and light phone calls. No complaints there.

The iphone is definitely the most solid (build/software) device ever created....but good luck with the poor battery life....my main reason for stick with the Berry, well that and the BBM, allowing seemless instant communication, even internationally - nothing the iphone has can match it.
Let me think about it. I may just return it and get my $ back (credit my credit card).

The iPhone is cool, but not a workhorse like BB. Everything takes too many steps to do. Sorry, I will never use the blasted device.
