And I refuse to go through charging contortions with the device in its current incarnation.
I not only wanted to buy one, I bought one. I fully charged it and turned WiFi, Bluetooth and syncing off immediately fully expecting poor battery life. The battery went fully dead after 1 1/2 days. I picked it up and there was a picture of a dead battery on the screen. My aged Aura One is still good for 1/2 weeks. And nobody is going to convince me that a series of Sage battery discharge/charges was going to make that battery worth a damn. I returned it in record time.
