The BlackBerry 8830 (CDMA)/8820 (GSM) has a good battery life - I have the GSM model and generally need to charge it every other day with regular use. Heavy use requires charging by the end of the day. I would define heavy use as pretty much calling all day, using the internet between those calls with wifi and/or bluetooth throughout.

That said, I would hold off on purchasing the 8800-series phone in favor of a 3G-enabled phone. The BlackBerry Storm 2, rumored to be released before 2010, is the CDMA touchscreen phone with wifi, gps & bluetooth. The BlackBerry Bold is the GSM non-touchscreen phone with wifi, gps & bluetooth. Both are 3G-enabled, which is a great improvement over the 1X/EDGE (pre-3G) technology.

Peace,
Father M.
