My wife loves this phone and I wish my Treo 650 was as good about email as her Q. The batteries (even the extended life) just are not cutting it (so we have lots of chargers). Initially we had many problems but seem to have settled now.

many problems with charging my phone. My wifes words find but I have tried different chargers, batteries etc and it is hit and miss if the phone will charge. I sometimes just take out my battery and charge it on my wifes phone and put it back in mine.

I've had mine for a year and a half. it has been an excellent phone. The original battery wore out, so I got the extended life and it lasts for days now. The bottom left corner button is just starting to wear out, but that is expected from any phone. I have to push it harder now.
