Like many others, I loved my D1 so much that as soon as I was eligible for an upgrade, I jumped on the D2G. Can't say enough good things about the new device.
That being said, I don't think the D1 needs to go in the drawer with retired iPods and Cellphones. I have the desk stand for the D1, so I decided to make it a full time desk clock. However, even with a brand new battery, when running the desk clock, the charge can't keep up and the device looses charge over time. I have never noticed this behavior with the D1 when I used it as a deck clock before, the only difference being that I never used the stand before, I just plugged it into the charger. Now, for some reason, the accessory must be trickle charging, which is not enough juice to keep up with the display, even when it goes to screensaver mode. I turned off all syncs and updates, does not help. Any ideas why this is happening?
Also, and the reason for this thread, what are others doing with their old devices after the upgrade? I am finding that owning two droids is time consuming - I have to keep two devices updated now!
