battery life

how long will the battery last when the ipod is on and not in use

Again, there are threads discussing this. Just a friendly reminder, try to look around at some other threads.


On the subject matter, though, you can check out the battery specs on Apple's iPhone page.

The specs on Apple site are pretty straight forward. There is still a rumor floating around that the iPhone will have 2 batteries. Presumably, one battery for cell phone functions and one for iPod functions. We will just have to wait and see to know the truth though.

Yeah me too, but I have read many posts on other forums from members that are convinced that it is true. If I have to lay odds, I would say the rumor has about a 25% chance of being true.

I really hope it is true though. It would be nice to know that you can listen or watch your media until the iPhone runs out of juice and still be able to make and receive calls.

Hmm now that I think about it the rumor never was shut down so its still fair game.

That was from that Kevin Rose drunk rant about the iPhone on his show

A little recap of all his "inside info"

• Extremely small form factor
• Two battery design (with single charger) -- one for playing music, the other for phone functions
• Flash memory: 4GB for $249, 8GB for $449
• "Slide-out keyboard"
• Possibly touchscreen
• Likely launch with a 'singular GSM carrier' with CDMA and other GSM to follow

0 for 6
