Everyone that doesn't have an iPhone complains about the same thing. How many times do you need to remove your battery? If it all, your battery probably sucks to begin with so no wonder it's "removable." I've had my iPhone 4 since launch (just over a year I think now) and I still have incredible battery life. I listen to the iPod at work for 8 straight hours, text all the time, play a couple games through the day, have maybe a couple calls and usually have about 70% battery life by the time I get home late at night and set it on the charger. No need for a "spare" for me. Larger than 32gb? Seriously? I have over 2,100 songs on my iPhone and 10 or 11 movies and still have about 3 gig left. Plus, who wants to buy an SD card larger than 32 gig with how expensive they get. I'll buy the phone with all the storage and be happy with just that. No need to buy a phone for $200 and then go buy an SD card for the same amount. On a lighter note, welcome to the iPhone family
