I am about to go to Russia. I have a Russian/English/Russian dictionary for my touchpro. I'm on sprint, and know the phone component won't work, so I'm renting a euro phone. However, I'd like to take the touch pro with me. What can I expect for battery life if I have all communications turned off; and am I correct that the charger that came with the unit is universal voltage, so as long as I have a plug adapter to go from US plug to Russian plug style, I can use the charger?

you should be able to use the phone all week if your battery is fairly new. if you have had the phone a while then you should get great battery life.. if you are there a week, lets say, then you probably dont have to charge the phone up but maybe once.. when you get there.. and maybe when you leave...

its usb so you should not have any issues. if you have access to a computer you can of course charge it there..

You can also buy travel power strips with integrated USB ports so that you can charge 1-2 devices without having your computer on, since many USB ports won't supply power if the computer is off. The strip would also let you get more from a single adapter and may provide surge suppression (since power infrastructure in some parts of the world isn't so good).
