Are you saying that if you turned your GPS tagging off, it wouldn't effect your battery life? Do you have the latest version of UT for 8900? I would be happy if you have the OTA link :) thanks a whole bunch! -marta Hi Mark,

Once I realized it was java-based I let out yet another "Damn you Java" scream and moved on to UberTwitter. Never underestimate the foresight of Star Trek and the Trouble with Twibbles. UberTwitter has a great UI and all the features work except the adding a picture, which gives me a "103" error during the upload to UberPic. I haven't figured that out yet.
