LG Chocolate Sales Figures Are Rippin’

LG has averaged a ridiculous 850,000 Chocolate mobile phones in each quarter of 2007. To get an accurate representation of how huge that number is, you could compare it to the sales number of the iPhone, which has sold about 1,000,000 handsets in its first 90 days on the market.

850,000 is just huge for the Chocolate, which doesn’t have 1/10th the media coverage or promotional spend. This phone sports a regular mP3 player, but doesn’t compare at all to the power of the iPhone.

How did they sell so many bleepin’ handsets? They sold them to a heck of a load of teenage and 20 year old females. No matter what you think about LG, you have to give them props for the Chocolate. Dang!!

How To Take Care Of The iPhone Battery

The iPhone uses a built-in, rechargeable lithium-ion battery. Since the battery can not be easily removed, it is highly important that the user takes care of it as best he/she can. With the right care and precaution, the iPhone battery should last for quite some time, although like any other rechargeable battery, may need to eventually be replaced.

If you keep the following things in mind, you will be able to make the iPhone battery last much longer than you would otherwise:

• Avoid heat like the plague. Lithium-Ion batteries can become very strained if they get too hot. This means never leave the iPhone in your vehicle and never leave it in the sun.
• Use the correct charger. If you lose your charger, make sure you get an original, Apple replacement.
• Don’t charge your iPhone in the car. Car chargers generally charge the battery more quickly, which leads to excess strain on the battery. Many of you will be tempted to buy an off-brand vehicle charger. Don’t do it unless you’re willing to buy a new battery eventually.
