    It would be interesting to know charging power range vs estimated power drain for various tasks, including browsing/talking/standby/streaming music etc. That is the sort of hard info that is always missing from these types of announcements
    Wonder also how rapidly the charge power drops off with age..

    will the display sustain the hot sun-rays if you had to leave it outside for an hour?

    Now if this phone is waterproof, shockproof and shatterproof (not a most) I'm down!
