    Well, it's just my first charging with the 8110, but I am already in the third day and seems to last a bit more!
    As I stated previously, this is a bad thing to do to your battery. Charge it
    as often as you can or be prepared to have a degraded battery and resign
    yourself to starting a "Help!!! My battery drains quickly" thread because you
    simply did not exercise best practices with respect to the power unit.

    Hey I'm with you I only had my phone for 4 weeks now and my battery drains quickly in on day also but I do use my phone alot but other cell phones I could go 3-4 days with the same use. I think there is something wrong with our batteries.

    There is nothing wrong with the battery. The problem is the users.
    Your old phones probably had a Ni-Cad, NiMH, or first generation Li-Ion batteries.

    The current technology works better if it is charged frequently and only deep
    discharged every 30 or so cycles.

    There is a wealth of information on the proper use and care of Li-Ion batteries,
    (some posted in this thread) but if people elect not to heed it, oh well..........
