Default How long can you go on a full charge?

How long can you go on a charge and what usage and battery are you using.

I'd like to get an idea of which battery to get.

This is for my wife and generally she has light usage. 1/2-1 hr talk time per day. She'd like a min of 2 days per charge ideally 3 days. With her fusic she would charge twice a week. Didn't know if I could squeak by with 1640mah battery.

Also most of her talk time is over bluetooth headset.

Also if anyone has tips or must do's to save battery I'd very much appreciate it.

I have the MOL3 ROM installed. I only have 1 application installed and that's Mapopolis (GPS navigation software).

2-2.5 days is what I'm looking for with light usage. But bluetooth is on and most calls are over bluetooth headset. But she can't seem to get through a day with stock battery.

My wife doesn't use internet yet. I mainly got it for her so she could do gps navagation in a pinch which she really likes and does use on occasion. And with SERO plan data plan was free.
