What can I do to make the battery last longer (besides obviously bring a charger to work, which I will be doing). I have been hearing that short battery life is a common thing.

I make sure my GPS and WIFI are turned off at work... and close ALL your apps if not using them. hold down the home key and go to task manager. close the programs. some will stay open if you do not exit them a certain way.
