Concerned about battery life
looking at the specs that are released on this phone so far the battery life appears to suck major. I hope this is a mistake, that could be a major drawback to getting this phone. I know there are apps that help you extend your battery life but just look at how the G2 specs stack up next to its 4 competitors.

The standby time is 430hrs, which is ~18 days.
Of course, as with all devices these times are not including app use or syncing.
They basically disable background data on a freshly formatted device (not running any mem intensive apps) and test how long till it dies.
