You say that like it's a bad thing! I'm impressed almost as much with your ability to pull this one off unnoticed as I am the hardware performance!

Did u have the simpleWidget note installed or running?? cos when i have that on my desktop, i will be like you, my battery died in just couple of hours even when not used, But after I removed it, my battery back to normal....well it is just a suggestion.

Err, actually I didn't say that I am having battery issues. The loading of the hardware invovled in the OP's post is quite heavy with the radio usage for any hardware.

Personally I get around 12-14 hours out of my handset on a single charge with WiFi and 3G running too.
