Nope, I've been fine (and I've done the speed and processor hacks as well). Typically, I leave the house at 7am with 4 bars and still have at least 2 bars when I return at 8pm - that's with two email accounts being checked every 5 minutes, plus periodic calendar and task updates through an Exchange server, plus about an hours worth of BT phone calls, plus moderate web-browsing, and other light use. I'm using the extended battery that came with my Q9c. Of course, I have a charger on hand both at work and in the car just in case.
