Hans, a few tips on battery life:

1) you're no doubt playing with that fucker 24/7, so you're eating more battery discovering your new toy. Keep that in mind.

2) 3G isn't that much faster than Edge. I keep my phone set to Edge because it eats less battery and the 3G pay off isn't worth the battery cost.

3) Under Mail Settings "Fetch New Data" if you have that set to "Push" it will eat the shit out of your battery. Adjust as needed, but the less you "Fetch" the longer your battery will last.

4) Turning off "Location Services" also extends battery life and is easy enough to switch on when you need it.

5) Make sure you're letting it run all the way down and shut off before recharging every time. I know this is impossible all the time, but as a general rule, on anything with a rechargable battery, this extends charge and battery life.

6) You probably know all of this already and I am asshole.

Enjoy the new rig.

I love my iPhone (first generation), but AT&T are a bunch of thieving fuckers for not providing meaningful coverage in Manhattan. Gas Face.

Kissel,

just read that IS70 post. bizzare. the top surreal parts are:

1) Jordan Dick running the alumni page and riffing him with Mandel.


2) seeing the Tyrone photo via the link sent by Jordan Dick and the fact that a girl allumni (*who thought Ty was "hot") said she could tell it was Tyrone (*not Jerome) because Jerome looked...ahem..."sweet".

2) Asher posting and romanticizing the bad old days of getting beat up and harassed. (*FYI: he tried to facebook me but i didn't respond. i felt kinda bad.)

don't know about the Murt stuff but I'm gonna heist the Bauman line.

Asher's my Facebook bud. He was one of my favorites from back in Mr. Kim's 6th grade homeroom class.
