new to the list

[Christopher Chaltain]

I agree with Brent. Three to four hours of talk time on the N75 is 
already pretty good. It's limited battery life is a known limitation of 
the phone.

If you have an unbranded phone, you can turn the 3G network off. You 
cannot do this on an AT&T branded phone. I have an AT&T branded phone, 
so I can't tell you exactly how to do this. I've heard this can almost 
double your battery life.

Another thing I've done is go into Menu -> Settings -> Config -> 
Connection -> Packet Data and change it to "When needed." I can't say 
that I've noticed a big increase in battery life since I've done this, 
but I got this tip on the list, and I would assume it would help at 
least a little.
