Yesterday I was reading in the Telegraph about the officers and civilian staff at Sussex Police who have recently been instructed not to charge their personal phones (and other related devices) at work. On the face of it, there’s a reasonable argument — over to the Telegraph post: The force must find £50 million worth [...]
Batteries: Can we stop talking about mAh and start talking “Feels like”
Geez. I can’t seem to read a press releases these days without being told about a handset’s amazing ’1,650 mAh’ battery life. Or 1,800 mAh. Or whatever. I really don’t care.

No points for guessing which phone lacks this ability. [...]
The iPhone 3G battery is shit
My iPhone 3G is behaving like a total dog when it comes to battery power. I got on the train at 10:11am with full battery, right? I switched on the mp3 player, I checked some email, I arsed about on Facebook, I located myself a few times, blah de blah. I generally ‘used’ the device [...]
Perhaps my iPhone 3G’s Exchange is draining the battery?
I’m wondering if one of the primary reasons that my iPhone 3G is draining it’s battery at a shocking rate whenever it’s unplugged is due to the Exchange integration? I was delighted when I was able to configure my device with my calendar, contacts and whatnot. It just sucked down all my data and whenever [...]
