If you want long battery life, you have to switch to GPRS (by switching to Cingular or T-Mobile). But Verizon's reception can be better in many areas.

VeriChat only lasts about 8 to 16 hours on 7250.... but VeriChat can last 75 to 100 hours nonstop on a 7290.
I understand, Thank you, done
I wish SMS and BMM are very good long than Verichat. I want AIM add in BBM future?
