    I just got my blackberry 8330 2 days ago, and I'm noticing that the battery drains really fast. I have a few programs downloaded on it, and I've been reading through the threads that say to close all the applications when not in use and it will use less battery. Is there a way to find out which applications are running on the phone at any given time? Or do I have to go into each program to see what's running?

    Press the BB function key (with all the dots) select switch application. That will show you whats running. There are five (I think) you can not ever close.

    EDIT: The five are "Browser, Messages, Home, BlackBerry Messenger, and Phone."
