This is proof that with the right strategy for the right market, you can really cover a larger area and serve your market better. And the app is not just about ordering pizza.

It seems that new iPhones are now revealing some of their flaws. One glaring feature and need for most devices today is the length of the battery life, something that some people over at Los Angeles are experiencing. There is no word if the issue only concerns the batch that came to them but this is really something that Apple should look into.
According to IFixit.com, repairing company which specializes in Apple products, the 3GS’s battery life was about 15% smaller than the original iPhone. But Apple spokeswoman Natalie Harrison emphasized, battery consumption is highly dependent on what applications and features are used.
It could be the size but the Apple spokeswoman has a point. If you have an application, like let’s say a game which you often play, chances are your battery will need a recharge sooner than you think. For now, this is the best explanation available but if the number of people who have the same issue without the given explanation, expect this problem to be a full-blown issue soon.
