Thanks. As you know, I had a general familiarity with the technology and I appreciate that much of what you posted was for others.

Cinci Bell has it as well. So does Orange UK, but it is like pulling teeth to get them to talk about it.

Anyone else notice that the battery life with a Piranha SIM is greatly reduced? My Tru and Telna SIMs can sit in idle mode for about a week... My Piranha SIM, the battery only lasts a day and a half in idle mode... Same phone, same battery....???

Perhaps. Could it be doing something different with data??

Perhaps you are not alone.
