Thanks everyone for your replies.

That's interesting to know some (if not all) others are experiencing
the same. Though Adam managed to get a week out of his phone.
May be Alcatel silently changed the battery specs. Who knows.

But I can say one thing, I've had an early Ericsson before this,
and then a Nortel 2000, and both have lasted approximately what the
manufacuters have claimed (within 5-10hrs I'd say).
I wouldn't say 80hrs is anywhere near 130hrs advertised.

One2One said they'll swap it for another one in case it is faulty.
Interestingly, when I took the sim card out and then put the battery
back, the battery indicator changed from 1/3 full to 3/3 full!
I put the sim card back, and it still said 3/3 full!
