My Tour charged overnight last night.

It turned on automatically and woke me at 6:00 AM, over 8 hours ago.

It's 2:16 PM.

I have been mailing, texting, using Viigo, browsing some web pages, and made a couple short calls.

My battery life is still at 90%!! (only 1/2 a bar down!)

With 4.7 or 5.0.0.230, I'd probably be near (or below) 50% by this time of day with similar use.

My Blackberry now lasts on one charge from Friday morning through the entire weekend and then some.

Utterly amazing improvement.

I am REALLY impressed!

Is everyone else seeing the same?

Cheers to RIM!

(of course heavy phone use will suck the battery down...)
