The update 1.3.5.2 apparently improved a little bit the battery life, which was needed. But still, it needs a daily charge if you don't want the battery to die in the middle of the day. I'm considering buying an extended battery, but the really extended ones make the Pre much more bulky, and I like it as it is now... I guess I can live with a daily charge. I will get a Touchstone (the wireless charger) because the micro-USB plug is not practical at all and the cover looks flimsy. Update 1.3.5.2 also brought bluetooth tethering, which is the last thing my old Treo could do that the Pre could not... so now I'm pretty much satisfied. On my wish list are still: -categories in contacts and calendar ! -a better time/date picker -alternate time zone in calendar After a few weeks, I’m still very happy with my choice.
