Really? Everyone I have every talked to that uses their 8830 heavily for browsing or email has worse battery life than my 8310, and it even has a large capacity battery. At the school I work at, I know at LEAST 9 students I talk to on a daily basis with heavy internet usage, and they ALL have worse battery life than me and my EDGE 8310, and they have a larger battery. There are other complaints on the 8830's battery life as well if you search.

Your not going to notice it if you dont browse or do HEAVY email, but those of us that do will hate 3G and the lower battery life.
