I was a hardcore quickpull guy cause I hated removing my back cover and batt. Since my 9700, I find I have absolutely no use for quickpull. There is zero memory leak. And once in a blue moon I'll do an alt-shift-del and it does the same thing with no add on baggage (the way rim intended it).
Just something to think about.
Good Luck.
