Upgrade your T-Phone to 128 megs of RAM
http://www.pocketpctechs.com/PPCPup.asp
First spotted on Pocket PC Passion, PPC Techs are now offering both 64 MB and 128 MB upgrades to the T-Mobile Pocket PC Phone Edition devices. If you wanted one of these but were leery of being limited to 32 MB of RAM, this is your solution. You can try using the code "pocketpcthoughts", although I'm not 100% sure what sort of discount (if any) you'll receive. Can't hurt to try though.

Do they have any numbers on how the additional memory affects battery life? According to Compaq's iPAQ battery life whitepaper, there are significant differences between 32MB and 64MB models.

Brightness/Volume | 64MB | 32MB
-------------------------------------------------
Super/Loud | 1:30-1:45 | 2:30-2:45
Super/Disabled | 1:45-2:00 | 3:00-3:15
High/Middle | 1:45-2:00 | 3:15-3:30
Medium/Disabled | 2:15-2:30 | 3:30-4:00
Low/Silent | 2:15-2:45 | 3:45-4:00
Low/Disabled | 2:45-3:00 | 4:30-5:30
Power Save/Loud | 5:45-6:00 | 8:00-8:15
Power Save/Silent | 6:00-6:15 | 13:30-13:45
Power Save/Disabled | 9:00-9:15 | 14:00-14:15
Additional memory uses power, that's a fact. The designers of the device have sacrificed memory and display (only 4K colors) in order to cut down on power drain. You should keep this in mind if you choose to upgrade RAM instead of using storage cards which aren't powered all the time.
