  1. Sounds pretty hopeful! I'm looking forward to getting it, and I'm sure I can get software that will do all the stuff I want. Is battery life any good? I suspect it may not be brilliant, so I won't part with my trusty little Geko 201 just yet. Lee No. Battery life is very bad. The GPS will run the battery down completely in less than two hours. Don't get me wrong, I love mine. It's the best phone and the best PDA that I've ever owned (I've owned A LOT of phones and PDAs) and I'm spoiled on its features, but the GPS radio drains the battery very quickly. You'll get great use out of it if you plug it in as often as possible. When I take mine out GCing I give it a full charge first, plug it in whilst in the car between caches, and then while in the field I turn it off when I'm not using it. I've spent a full day GCing using this method and not run out of juice. On the other hand, it ran out of juice when I left it running on a two hour motorcycle ride. GPS sucks the juice.
