Gmail Push Notifications...(greiving my Blackberry)

[krs7272]

Push mail doesn't kill my battery at all--if you're that concerned though, use Boxcar.

Exactly. But I think the reason is all of these Verizon people are coming from the Battery Killing Androids for the most part and are real sensitive to a 1% battery drop.

You don't have to worry push will be fine.

Setting up as an Exchange account is the "true push" method I mentioned above that was using 12-15% of my battery every hour (roughly). It's always been a battery hog.

are you saying that if you leave your phone untouched it loses 12% per hour?

I lose 5% overnight
