Cellphones - How often do you charge yours?
To everyone that has a cellphone here, how often do you charge your phone and how long does the charge last? I just got my Kyocera a month or two ago and it seems like I need to charge it everyday. I only use it for emergencies. I used to leave it in my car but after what had happened at the Tropicana, I figured I should carry mine around all the time.

How long do you let it get before charging it? I let mine drain down to 1/4 charge left before charging it. I have a Sony Ericsson almost 2 years old and it lasts 2-3 days between charges. I use 10 or 20 minutes a day talking. The box or manual should state battery talk time and standby time. Also a long musical ringtone and flashing keypad or antenna light would drain it more then normal.

I just plug mine in at night to keep a full charge. I hardly use it at all and when I take it with me on my drive to KY, I'll probably keep it plugged into the charger as I drive. I've heard that it doesn't help the life of life of the battery to do that. But since it's hardly ever used, it doesn't seem to hurt.
