Number 2 doesn't make any since at all! You can have hundreds of programs
installed on your phone and just because they are installed isn't going to
cause the phone to use any more battery power unless you start them and they
run in the background. This has been the case for all the phone out there.
Myself, I have about 40 to 50 things showing up in the App. Manager. Things
like Skype may add 5 or more items on it's own when you install it. The
KNFBReader Mobile Software could add another 5 or so items to the App.
Manager. YBrowser depending on the version and things you install could add
another 3 or so items. The VCM voices will add I think about 2 items per
voice. So for all the English items that could be another 14 items.
So what you are saying is this would cause the phone to use more battery
just because they are installed. That isn't true being they aren't doing
anything unless you use them.

Subject: [Talks] Two battery saving recommendations
Hello all.
I wish to recommend two ways of saving your battery power.
1. Instead of charging your phone via mains, charge it via USB, where
possible. It will do your phone's battery a world of good, since USB draws
a lot less power than mains, 500 miliamps and 13 amps respectively. Also,
enable power saving mode on your phone. This sets your phone to use the
battery's optimum life.
2. Look in your phone's application manager. If you see anything unusual,
go ahead and remove it. The absolute minimum you should have on your phone
are Talks, Talks Core and your chosen synthesizer, mine being Eloquence. I
discovered the hard way that the more apps I have on my phone, the more it
can drain the battery, depending on the app of course.
Hope these help.
Take care.
