I have an AT&T Tilt 2 (Windows 6.5) smartphone. I used it as my only e-reader (first with MobiPocket and later with Freda) until I got a Kindle 3 late last year, then my NC after Christmas this year.

It wasn't at all uncommon for me to read an hour or two at a stretch with my phone, in addition to texting with my kiddos, a bit of light web surfing, and of course a couple of phone calls. There were days with kid sports practices when I'd have read for up to 4 hours total in a day. Even with extremely heavy use, my Tilt 2 only needs to be charged every 36 hours or so.

The one advantage my phone has over my e-readers is that my phone is always with me.

Don't know if the BB is up to it or not. I have a co-worker with a Storm and his battery is sucked down in 12 hours from talking, texting and music.
