batterry

Just got this phone a few days ago an the battery dies so quick. I have to charge it like 3 times a day. Does anybody else have this problem an what can I do to make my battery last....? Do I need to buy a whole new battery or get the blackberry curve.

my up time and awake time, keeps running while the phone is off. can anyoen explain this? is this even normal?

and i need a comparison chart for themthanx in advance :)™
