o2's Jet does 9.9 hours talktime, not 10 hours

Link: Mobile Choice Magazine : Review: O2 Jet

And the O2 Jet has monster staying power, with O2’s quoted 9.9 hours of talktime and 540 hours of standby time not far off the mark. In testing we used the Jet more than the average user (talking, texting and browsing the O2 active portal) and found it gave us a little more than a week’s worth of life.

You have to wonder why the o2 Jet phone is rated at 9.9 hours and not 10 hours. What’s 0.1 of an hour amongst friends? Or have they already rounded it up from, say, 9.5 hours?

Either way, as the Mobile Choice article points out, it’s a monster of a handset to select if you are constantly on the phone and don’t want any of the poncy additions that folk like me swoon over. 🙂
