Picked up a Blackberry curve (this is my first BB, all my other phones were Palm OS or WM). It seems pretty solid and with the built in GPS runs google maps really well. So anyone else got one? How do you like it?

It was a pretty good deal to $100 after the rebate and upgrade. Data plan cost went down to apparently. I remember it being $50 for a personal at one point.

Out of the box I got about a day and a half on it. Anyone notice this? I changed my settings around to see if improves but I had a treo 650 and a Cingular 8125 and those things would go almost a week on a full charge.
