Have a quick search there is loads about battery life........

You should be getting 24/48 hours ISH out of it.......check your firmware as well V20 or V21 will give this sort of battery life.....

type *#0000# this will tell you your firmware

I'm using a portable battery charger. Works great. I usually run out of juice at the end of the day, before i get home. Mine might be faulty as well.

Time for an upgrade, which will improve your battery performance no end.

Check out the tips tab at the top of the page regarding upgrading your firmware. Make sure you do a back up as stated in the guide, and you will be fine.

By portable charger do you mean one of those that have batteries in or a car charger, or do you connect to the mains power supply...

I allways seem to get a better charge when charging from mains power....
