Just to note that I do use and abuse mobile's..... So even my older Nokia in the end had a shocking battery life. @Ubuntu.Diego: I do agree with you but I google had very little to do with the physical design and hardware (That might also be a reason for it)

They (the G1 team) develop a cellphone that it is suppose to provide the best connectivity and on-line presence, but you can't have all the features that make this presence possible active all day, because you run out of battery... WTH ? Sorry, but I need my phone to be active all day 24/7. I’m confused with the Battery Life issues of a G1.

I will get a chance to try one out in May when I get back to my hometown. I happen to know a person at the at&t store there. I've been waiting to see what the next generation of phones looks like before diving in since i keep a phone forever. lol Glad to hear you’re happy with it.
