I am never really worried  about battery issues. All my Androids I always has 2 spare batteries as a standard support accessory. MY phone is always on charge in car and while at work/home - so I never run out of juice. The spare batteries are only use when I am out and I have no access to charging source.
And don't expect BMW performance with a Nissan Sunny fuel consumption. Guys who wishes for great power but low battery consumption - just have to wait until the battery technology improve and  just don't buy this phone if battery life is an important criteria
I also have an external battery ( 4800 maH) which is always with me - see pic below which I have attached it to my Galaxy Tab. I used it too to provide extra power to the SGS II hen the need arise - so far I used it once only when on a 5 hour bus trip
So I am well covered now. I am just waiting for Mugen or Andida to release their substitutes and as usual, I will buy 2 spare units

Seem to recall seeing it in the free section of the app market, called easy answer or fast answer button. You can try.

The external battery is Yoobao YB-602 External Battery 4800mah. I bought it at lelong.com.my for RM 119 straight buy not bidding. You can search there or at garage sales lowyat ( the last time it was listed at about RM 200). Just plug in your SGS II USB cable or any USB-micro USB cable to it to charge the phone. Definitely can charge any Android phone

The other item , the 1500mAH back battery pack  is listed in the Taiwanese website - no idea of price when avaialble. Since just reported, I believe we should see such similar appearing in ebay soon

The plugin 1900maH to the base of the SGS II is generic type and can be plug into any phone having a micro USB slot. The model I have shown is specifically for the SGS II. Those I saw at Singapore Sim Lim quite similar and comes in 2-3 type of sizes, all basically plug into bottom of phone.

thanks benny

the 4800 looks more attractive with bigger capacity and more universal (can use for more than 1 phone model)

better than the extended version

for the default software that comes with the phone,

1) Does it have chinese inputs either pinyin or write the exact character? i can't find it. if there is, care to share ? if not, how to get it?

2) where is the voice -> text tool shown in the advertisement?

for chinese character input you have to download google pinyin

google pinyin in market is the default one, just that you have to manually download it cause not all users uses chinese input.

thx bro

For Chinese input , download google pinyin - choose it as keybaord in settings/Language Keyboard
At Menu - Voice Commands app  is there.

Anyway, you can use the default keyboard for voice activated texting,  if you have another voice activated keyboard similarly can use it , eg vlingo
Or at Google search - just press the mike button - you can search using voice

This voice activations is nothing new; only the SGS II advert glorified it. I has been using these voice activations since the days Froyo was available

thanks uncle benny. when i open a new sms, i see there is a mic button. is that to activate the voice -> text thing? but when i press it, it tells me "connection error"

stock or not is up to user experience... biggrin.gif
by the way, ROM u mean should be software that include driver, baseband and android OS...you may refer to first page...which uncle benny jot down very clearly... rclxms.gif
*
I read that. just that i don't know the sentence "A ROM contains ...." meaning the H/W store the OS or it is the software

Anyway, now i understand

Thanks

A ROM contains the operating system and often additional software which can be “installed” to your mobile device

the voice recognition needs an active data line, so make sure your on wifi or your 3g connection is running appropriately.

oh... it is not inside the phone memory? is it possible to use it offline?

not possible, think of the amount of data needed for it to work offline.
yes, press power and home button simultaneously.
the reasoning would be the amount of data needed to be stored on your phone to make it work offline, and besides a hassle to update it. i prefer it being online, so on server side they can make necessary improvements with the recognition without all of the end users to download and update it.

how is the response time from the server for our Malaysian scene? if have to wait quite long for the words to be converted to text, no use lah
