First of all I owned a T39 and the capacity was massive I often got 5 days standby from it. When I got it I returned it because the battery indicator was as good as useless, they changed the batt. and it did seem a little more accurate.

I now have a T68i and the battery life is quoted as more but I cant seem to get any where near as long as the T39 for e.g when I have say 2 hours standby remaining it only lasts 1/2 hour and by comparison my T39 lasted a whole days with 0 life and talktime. The T68 seems to get a max of 4 days and thats with very little use.

So my questions are...

Are the battery indicators accurate?

Is the battery life I'm getting about right or do I have a dud battery?

Yes that is true, also listening to music with it shorts down the standby time
