What are your thoughts about the 89xx battery?
My thoughts are....Your brother is right!

I've posted on this in the "Does my battery life seem normal?" thread. The bottom line is: With my 8320 I usually had 40% left when I put it on the charger at night. With my 8900, and no change in usage or location, I often have a dead battery before I go to bed, or, if not, I have very little charge left--at least according to "Status." I don't have any geotagging things turned on, and I actually don't make a lot of phone calls. As I wrote in the other thread, I notice that just playing mp3s is quite a drain, which is puzzling.
