Like the length of my hair?
Nah, yes, that would be interesting. But I want a *new* device of course, not one with other-people-stink all over it
I'd be happy to do that test it they *also* sent me a new device.

Perhaps a quick email to SameerH would get you permission/advice considering your status as a beta tester...

Hah. Interesting indeed! I vaguely recall batteries are not similar though, but I've no idea where that recollection comes from. So, easiest way to find out is to open up my Touch. I'll think about it. First, I want a week of reading before I do more messing about. Gah.

Mm interesting. So 44 hours vs 41 hours spread out over an extra week... Nice! I wonder if TechniSol's battery will suddenly drop to 0% anytime soon. Thanks for sharing Geoff.
