Sarah / tosarah,

Interesting issue on whether its correct or wrong charging your new h/p for more than d usual charging time (approx 2 to 3 hrs). But in recent years, whenever i bought a new h/p or BTooth devices, d seller will always advise me to charge d phone for about 8 hrs even though d batt is either Li-Ion/Li-Polymer. I always disagree wit their advise/recommendation but then again even d Nokia/SonyE/Samsung/... distributors said d samething. "Best charge it for about 8 hrs." Technically, i do agreed with "tosarah" thats unnecessary. But i dont think "Sarah" are wrong too cos she maybe advised by the seller. Or maybe it really works! Cheers!

the phone is fine. the battery runs out fast when on 3g mode but on the other hand it charges up very fast. Swings and roundabouts, me thinks.

I've also had problems loading cd to my computer for some reason.

for thos of u who dunno abt it, li-ion battery - theres no nit of initial charging time or watsoever, u can charge ur fon anytime at any level, it is no neccesary to charge ur fon when it is fully drained
