I Have the green one, had it for like 1 month--the internet issue i dont have becauwe i dont ust the web on teh phone so i wouldnt know.

the battery-- well what i can tell you about mine is that out most of my phones especially the nokia 6133 that i had from tmobile the battrery out does them.

im a heavy user i start using it bout 6 in the morning for music (exersise) and go on talking texting the rest of the day-- till about 9-10 p.m, and i have either 2 or one bar left. i charge it every night.

my sis in law on the other hqnd has the green one two she complains her battery is out in the middle of the day-- i told her to make an exchange. we hang out all the time and we pretty much us it the same way! so maybe an exchange will work...
