Hows eveyones battery life with all the extra notifacations, constant location searching?.

I havent yet seen a contact i can use imessages with (the send button hasnt been blue)

Whenever i plug a dock connector in; PC, notebook, dock.. it wont charge first time round, need to upnplug and re-plug.
[may be coincidence]

Also, wifi syncing wont work for me

Not greatly impressed yet.

what an absolute faff that was! my phone got bricked and i had to stay up for an hour overnight to get it restored etc, luckily my backup worked! not the huge change i was hoping for really - notification cte is good and also the camera stuff but otherwise the only useful thing ive found so far is an ability to drag down the keyboard and hide it whilst replying in messages lo

seems reasonable so far. remember that the other party will need iOS5 to iMessage so will have to wait for more uptake before it works well

it doesnt appear to backup your photos to the icloud, only the photo stream, thus if your images are older than 30 days, they'll drop from photo stream and wont be backed up.

slightly annoying.

I thought the phone couldnt boot at all by itself with a tethered jailbreak?
If it does boot and it just wont allow you to run jb apps then thats fine, any chance you could test it sometime?
