The iPhone 3G battery is shit

My iPhone 3G is behaving like a total dog when it comes to battery power.

I got on the train at 10:11am with full battery, right?

I switched on the mp3 player, I checked some email, I arsed about on Facebook, I located myself a few times, blah de blah. I generally ‘used’ the device for the duration of the 35 minute train ride.

I was down about 10% of the battery power by the end of the journey.

By midday with on-and-off usage, checking email regularly and whatnot, I had just 20% left.

Useless, absolutely USELESS.

You don’t get that with an N95 8GB.

Still, the iPhone 3G is a beautiful device and I do like the applications.
