>I don't think any OEM can make battery life a differentiating feature. Maybe not long term, but I think it's doable in the short term. The trend in smart phones the past few years has been that form factor drives the design. As phones get thinner and thinner, there's just plain less room for a high capacity battery. Moto's current line up actually features both extremes here: the RAZR is the obsession with thinness, while the RAZR MAXX takes the same basic phone, and concedes size to stuffing it with a huge battery. The MAXX seems to have been fairly well received, so Moto might dip their toes a bit deeper into these waters.
