I have bought many mobile phones over the last few years, as I am sure most people have, and while none have been particularly amazing, some have absolutely been crap. The main problem I have ever had with my mobile phones has been with the cell battery. The cellular phone battery has either stopped working or it just would not last long enough and I would need to buy and carry a replacement battery.
I always use my cellular phone a lot, both for work and for home use, so having another battery is often worthwhile but having to replace a faulty or damaged battery is so annoying. My newest phone is working ok but I would like a replacement battery for times when I am not in the office.

So for now the true question is do I spend the money purchasing a new HP iPAQ hw6510 Mobile Messenger cell phone battery or do I just buy a new phone with a longer life battery? Replacement batteries are quite cheap but a new phone would be great. Decisions, decisions…
