Just so everyone knows, the amount of charge a battery can hold will never increase much more than what we can do now with Lithium Ion. Batteries store their charge on metal atoms. Increasing a battery's charge requires packing more metal atoms into a small space. The heavier an atom, the further apart it must be from fellow atoms. Therefore, lighter atoms can have a higher charge density. Lithium is one of the lightest metals we have found so far that can hold a charge in this way. Minor improvements in the charge density will be made in years to come, but nothing substantial.

Using a fuel-based battery, like a fuel cell, will have a much higher charge-density. Anyways, a lithium-ion battery that can handle years and year of charging and recharging is great!

My thoughts EXACTLY.

You are wrong. Sears and Walmart are doing it for $150 for NEW Verizon customers. Verizon only does it for EXISTING customers. Of course it's a "Verizon thing" by proxy, but you can't get the same offer directly from Verizon.

One more thing: Why are most people hoping that it comes with Android 2.0? They only just released 1.6, and it was made available to even the G1. One would only assume that 2.0 would work on recent and upcoming phones too.

Flash 10 is being released for Android and smart phones in general: http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9127986/Adobe_preps_full_Flash_player_for_smartphones

Hopefully that voice at startup is the only design flaw...

I'm actually glad it's not running Blur.

Why don't they just use Apple's mini-DisplayPort? Or Mini-HDMI?

Tremor, it's free on contract in the UK for Orange customers. So I wouldn't be so skeptical!

Any chance we'd get that deal for that price? There's no way AT&T would offer a contractual plan for that phone for only $56 a month :-(

The Cliq looks great...I hope a variation of it geared toward business users comes to AT&T!
