I bought a Bold 9790, having used a Curve 8900 for the last 2 years. The problem with Bold 9790 is that the battery life is bad and the handset gets hot when used. The battery is drained within 4 to 5 hours using it for texting to & fro my office and this after it was fully charged. We do shuttling and tours, so the office sends one’s pick ups through texting. So I cannot afford to be without a working mobile. It gets worse when one gets calls, then it starts heating up and the battery drainage starts excellarating. I am frustrated and disappointed because the Curve 8900 would last me 2.5 days with calls, internet and texting. One expects the new mobile sets to progress and improve with reliability but this is the opposite. Please help us, I am a Blackberry biggest fan and user, but this is frustrating.
Thank you

Woah..James and i have a similar story. Have been using my Curve 8900 from 2010..with no problems at all. just wanted to get an upgraded device with all of the hype of the OS7. So i went in for the 9790. Really disappointed. Device heats up and battery drains from 90% straight to 35% in 2-3 minutes. It behaves normally after hard boot. Truly disappointed. I am using this deive for the past 3 days and im not happy with it at all.
