11-06-2009 10:08 PMEven the little fold up "Getting Started" that comes with the phone recommends using one.

11-07-2009 09:12 AMThis looks like it or an equivalent is going to be a MUST have on this bad boy if you like to have all the bells and whistles ( gps etc ) running which is the point of having a bad ass phone like the droid.
I had mine fully charged and put it on my night stand for bed, got up this morning and it was down to 15%...
So gonna need to shut down the goodies overnight at least.
