New Battery, New Life for the Sprint Mogul

So I took a chance on a cheap but supposedly OEM replacement battery from an eBay vendor for my Sprint Mogul. The old battery was so grim that even the power management system on the phone had pretty much given up on it. But the battery is indeed OEM and so far has cured the power problems. It was outstanding to get two days of battery life even with Exchange running and a dead zone at my desk that causes the phone to constantly search for a signal. Maybe the Mogul will indeed survive until contract renewal in June. For the record this marks the fourth phone in a row that had a battery failure within 6 months of renewal. Brilliant engineering.
