ty for the info brynn checked that site and they do a monster 3000+mah battery for tg01 on that mugen site epic so if 1000mah standard battery lasts 1 day average the mugen battery will last 3-4 days woop YOU LOSE IPHONE :)

monk, 20 Jan 2010sorry brynn for a stupid question but the extended batterys... moreThe site says the 1300 milliamp will fit normally but the other 2 sizes have a new back for tg01..My e52/e72 have 1500milliamp batterys and the mugen one is 1800milliamp and fits fine in both devices but the larger batterys come with new covers...I have got bigger batterys for n95-1 and n96 and both had new back covers and none interfered with camera lens..

sorry brynn for a stupid question but the extended batterys for the tg01 are they the same size as the 1000mah default battery as the case would have to be altered if larger?

Well in my last post I said I would hate for the screen to get scratched, and its happened. Don't know how, as I was as careful as possible. I've ordered some screen protectors and a rubber/leather case for it. I checked back on some reviews and they say that the screen is "scratch prone". The scratch isn't really noticeable unless I tilt it into the light. I'm quite disappointed that it got scratched so easily. I've read about some polish called Displex, does anyone know if it will work on this phone?

I've had the TG01 for about 2 months and must say it's a great device.
The initial experience with Windows Mobile 6.1 and the Toshiba UI was certainly not impressive: there's not a single trace of usability in Toshiba's home screen.
Fortunately, a few weeks ago I got a notice from Orange Romania, telling me I can upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.5 for free. And that changed everything!
The new OS is absolutely lovely and, with a few customization apps (I recommend Home Screen Customizer from the Windows Marketplace) , I got exactly what I was expecting: a responsive and customizable phone.
Oh, and something really annoying: the camera has no flash and I didn't find a way to turn the shutter sound off.
All in all: great job, Toshiba (and Microsoft for delivering a more than decent mobile OS - at last!)

There seems to be a renewed interest in Tg01 & i am glad,too many wrote it off without giving it a chance of updates like they do with nokia etc..

Got this phone on Friday from the orange shop for £149 incl £10 credit. For this price its a real bargain. Everything works great; WiFi, GPS, Accelerometer, all of the windows programs... The only bad thing is that the battery lasts about 2 days at the most. An 8GB Toshiba brand MicroSDHC is included, so this phone really is a bargain! I think it would of been nice if Toshiba had given a pouch/case with the phone because I would hate for the beautiful 4.1" screen to get scratched/damaged.

The phone is excellent except for the part that battery life sucks...
If you are too lucky it will last for a single day..
UI is awesome and 1GHz processor makes it the king ...
