smicky Go Pies!!!

This can also be done via the download menu within the android OS (if the option is enabled - normally requires a cracked bootloader).My concern is that I trash my phones - bluetooth, wifi, FB updates, email, sync, etc all running most of the day. (Obviously turning the BT and Wifi off when not needed)... However between writing sms's to mates, a few calls, FB'ing when out (enough said when Grey Goose and Belvidere is involved lol), and email, the thing when from 60% to near dead in around 2-3 hrs...Just doing a full charge now, before heading out tonight and will give it another spin!!!Let you know how it goes tomorrow I guess...
