just like an iPhone, battery life is pretty cruddy compared to what we're used do. as a pure PHONE it's probably good for a couple days. The more you use the smartphone features of it, the less life you'll have. Expect to have it on the charger every time you are in your car, at your desk, or going to sleep. Not sure how much replacement batteries cost.

There are some odd things missing that could make the phone so much better -- ie, an easy way to get directions to somebody.

Joining duplicate contacts together doesn't work for me.

when you get a new email or other notification, a little icon appears in the top status bar. to expand this, you kinda dwell your finger on the top edge for a couple seconds, then drag it down the face of the phone to sort of "unroll" the notification window. This is the MOST COMMON THING to do with your phone. It should have a much simpler action to get in there.

you can't really tell what apps are running and which ones aren't.
corrollary: you can't easily restart an app that's being wierd

some really common things are buried in settings menus (turning wifi on/off, turning GPS on/off -- both of which you would do to save battery)

there should be a "night mode", where only phone calls and the alarm get to make any noise.
