[Reader-users] battery life

[Kathy Davis]

Dear Charlie,

I am wondering if you are totally blind and still able to use the blue tooth
head piece. For me, having only light perception, I ended up and took my
blue tooth ear piece back because I couldn't tell whether it was on or off.
Also I would like to hear more about Wayfinder as the GPS on your phone. I
haven't heard this program discussed very much and I am getting very close
to deciding to purchase the reader, Talks, the N'82 and possibly Wayfinder.
I would simply like to know how you feel Wayfinder compares to other popular
GPS systems.

Thank you very much,

Can't say that this happens to me being a power phone user, more than an
hour a day and sometimes over 2 if doing any conference calls or anything. 
My Bluetooth is on, I use Wayfinder going to work and back so I know where I
am and that means the GPS receiver on the phone is running and I come home
to 3 bars or more.

Oh did I mention I use the reader during the day.

I guess the question would be if you have a defective battery as this phone
should be able to do 4 hours talk time if you are only using the phone as a
phone.
