Unfortunately, I am unsure I can wait that long. I went from a TMO Curve to a Droid. Droid is proving less than satisfactory for me, to the point where I am seriously contemplating going back to the BB.
For me, it was a surprising thing the past two days about the Droid: Battery life. Unplug at 730 am, and am down to 15% or less by 6pm. Wholly unsatisfactory. I don't do anything on it I didn't do on my curve, perhaps browse a little more...but I've made fewer phone calls, and sent fewer txt messages/BBM messages (since Droids don't have that).
Thinking Storm2, but read about battery life issues. Wife's boss has a Storm 1, and says he never gets below 50% during the week after a long day of use, mostly email, calendaring and some browsing, with a few calls. On weekends, little-to-no email, more phone calls. Based on his estimates, he can go 2 days before having to recharge.
I am reading that Storm 2 users are getting maybe a good day, but having to recharge.
I never thought of the battery thing as being an issue for me...but now that I think of it, I could easily get 3 days, or more, out of my TMO Curve. Once went for a long camping trip and never recharged it, even though txt to my wife frequently (camping is being generous...it was a national guard FTX drill weekend).
I like the Storm2, but am used to the Curve. I am finding battery life to be more important than I thought. Lack of WiFi was never an issue, since I never used it on my Curve except to try it out.
Thoughts?
