Comment on The HTC EVO – Not Quite Prime Time by chris

I hate it that you had such a bad experience. I have been an Android user since the G1, and what I have discovered along the way is quite simple. It’s great to have the ability to have multiple apps running in the background but in reality to device can function at peak capacity when every program you have installed is running in the background. Here are a few simple tricks to increase your battery life.

1) If you are not downloading or streaming, switch to 2G networks only
2) If you work in front of your PC, then there really is no need to have your Twitter, and Facebook updated every 5mins. Set it to sync every few hours instead of every 5mins.
3) Same with email notifications. I set mine to never notify me when I receive an email. If I want to check my email, simply open up the mailbox app, and it will refresh and pull the data on demand.

I am willing to bet you, these small changes will help save your battery without limiting your phone completely useless.

Those are new working web proxy servers. They should go passed the filters. I checked all of them and they are fast and reliable. The complete list of them is here: http://anonymouslist.net

I like seeing Pat in the tub. But the clincher is the great lighting.

Yes, the delay results can also be caused by an active spam filter or gateway associated with your Exchange Server.
