The battery seems like a huge crapshoot to me on these phones. Some people get great life, some horrible. I think I am in the middle somewhere. I can drain the thing superfast with heavy non-stop usage though, that is for sure. The extended batteries are out there, I have never bought one though as I am usually close to a place to charge.
Here is another reason for HP to want webOS. I am reading a live blog of the press conference. HP showed Palm phones and a slate device on the same screen. Apple showed the way to do tablets/slates in a succesful way is probably with a mobile OS. I would buy a webOS tablet.
