[Reader-users] battery life

[Gary Wunder]

Before the days when my phone was just a phone and not a camera phone, the 
batteries were larger. Even on my Toshiba phone, I can only get about a 
day - nothing like the old Sanyo 4500 or 4700 phones which could easily get 
3 or 4 and bragged they could do 11.
