How many of those times were within the first year? Because those were covered already under the phone's 1 year warranty.
I turned off push, brightness 75%, and 3G always on (I check email at red lights...lol.) Could probably last 2 days with a bunch of calls, hourly email check, some music while driving, and maybe even some games at night, with a lot of idle time, of course.
but since it can charge and sync while my macbook is closed and on stand-by, I just plug it in there every night.

even better if you are near an Apple Store....same day replacement
Are you sure this is how it works? I figured that it is always searching. Afterall, as soon as I turn the phone from wake, it tries to connect (after 3.0, it takes a while longer too). To automatically connect, it must be searching.StrikerObi said:
Unless push forces it to constantly search.
I have don't ask to join, but I figured that was only to stop asking, not to stop searching.
I have mine on 50%
I have mine with push off, and the fetch set to manual. Under individual accounts, it defaults to fetch, but I assume that means it will use the global setting of fetch (which is manual). I never get random emails come on without opening the app, so I assume I'm doing it right.
I don't use bluetooth either so have this off.
I have location services on, but it doesn't use teh gps unless an app calls it.
I have my autolock on 1 minutes.
Here's my typical usage day. I wake up at 7:00AM. I check the weather on my iPhone before heading into work. I usually get to work early and catch up on Tweets via Tweetie. I am at work until 5:00. I listen to some music or podcasts, probably 1-4 hours worth depending on the day. When I'm home I use the iPhone for random stuff like playing games or messing around with other apps. I probably talk on the actual phone for less than 30 minutes a day, and send/receive maybe 5 texts per day on average (more on weekends). I go to bed at midnight. If I don't plug my iPhone into my car charger at all during the day, I am still left with 40%+ battery life at the end of the day. It's worth noting that I am in the presence of Wi-Fi almost all day long. My house and office both have wi-fi, so I don't access the 3G network that much. That may be my real secret, but I can't confirm it.[/QUOTE]
Before teh update, I could get hours (like loads maybe 8-10) of audio in. After teh update, After a couple of podcasts, I'm down to 50%.
I still think it's push - maybe it causes it to constantly actually USE the wifi.
Wifi is much worse too - more dropouts, and weaker signal. I wonder if it's using more power in this area.

Shit. My extended warrenty that i bought last october wont carry over to my new phone right?
Just contacted AT&T trying to get a date on MMS support and got this:
"I apologize and realize this is a feature you would like. ATT is currently unable to make the system changes necessary to support MMS at this time. ATT will make an announcement at a later time if and when we decide to enable this feature. Thank you."
If?

Can I ask a question about geotagging? I understand that the iPhone will geotag photos taken and attach the location to the image? As a PC user how can I take advantage of this functionality? I can't find anything in Windows (Vista) that uses this function.

Does Picasa use it? I know on the Picasa web albums they have maps built in.
iPhoto on the Mac have it integrated.

Thanks for the link guys using it now. This really is the Jesus phone. It's worth the extra 35 a month not to deal with that shitty touch diamond

Any suggestions for a charging case? Man the iPhone dies quick!
DemDereNads said:
You can mitigate that by playing with the push settings, turning off wifi which may stop the phone for scanning for and occasionally connecting to recognized hotspots automatically and, in a pinch, dimming the brightness a little.
But yeah, it's not exactly a "charge every few days" phone.

...hate me...
Concatenated SMS exists for about a decade IIRC.
The character limit of one SMS is 160 characters indeed, but with phones that support concatenated SMS you can write a text well over that limit and it will send it as a single SMS even though to the operator it will count as several. If the receiver phone supports concatenated SMS as well, it will get it as a single text too.
It will suck for me if the iPhone converts a 320+ char text into an MMS because I pay for each MMS while SMS's are free on my plan (up until 1500 per week)

Quick question... buying an iPhone 3GS after my trip to Shanghai. Have they FINALLY made cell phone cases that accommodate a cell phone strap or those little toys yet? You'd think that someone would have, but the VERY few things I found about it were ugly as sin or really unappealing. And I'm going to China, I'll have my pick of these little trinkets, wanna bring one home.

has calmed down a bit.
My wife's iPhone screen looks "yellower" than my 3g, but you can only tell when they're next to each other.
