Hi,

I personally would find that of little concern.  It would just be 1 less thing 
to carry and 1 less thing to spend money on.  Those things out way a 15 hour 
battery life in my opinion.  It's kind of silly to compare.  The iPhone does 
more so should have lower battery time.  And the IOS 4 update has fixed the 
standby bug so many people are having more than double the battery life than 
they had pre update.
