Default Concerned for Battery Charge Time!

I am somewhat of a noob at battery specifications and such. Anyways I charged my Tour today and it went from 15% to 100% in a about 4 hours started at 10am and unplugged at 2pm. My previous experience with phone batteries has me thinking that the charge time was way too quick. Am I right or should I not be concerned?

I've never really timed it, but that sounds about right for charging time.

yeah I wouldn't worry about it, unless you take it off the charger and you immediately start losing battery power. If this happens, you might have a faulty battery or faulty charger.

Actually curve batteries will fully charge in 1hr. You have nothing to be concerned about though..

I have noticed the charge time is a little short...compared to the other BB's I've owned (7130c, 7290, 87xx, 8320)
