New Blackberry Curve 8310 not holding charge??? HELPPP

Hi
Wonder if any1 can help/had the same problem. Got my new Blackberry Curve 8310 about a month ago, but it only preety much lasts a day so need to charge it every night, which is crap really. After upgrading my e61 which lasted 5days after 2 years – 1 day is unacceptable. I had a new charger, new battery, changed settings etc., nothing worked and it only lasts about 24hrs. I got mad and went to the shop the other day and after a while they gave me a new BB curve. Charged it as instructed for 16hrs, but 10 hours after takin it off charge and battery down to 60%!!!! What the heck?? All I did in this time – 10 txt msgs and 1 phone call. Phone has been in the holster all time in batt sav mode!! Any idea anyone?? Is it a bad batch or what??
:eek:

    first off id contact who ever sold u the phone

    id also ask do you have it connected to any networks either 3g or wifi?
    is BT turned on?
    The orginal post in this thread has a very very slim chance of being about money saving. The post is more than likely to ask a question that google could answer better than any of us.

    no BT, no wireless and no 3g - its got GPRS but there is no option to turn it off. I check my emails and stuff but thats about it really. to make it even more confusing - first handset once lasted 3,5days - not made any changes - so not sure what to think about it..
