I have to charge twice everyday. I agree I'm connected online 24X7, but I dont run any widgets. I'd rather open the website. On an average day, I use it as follows:
30 mins of cellular calls.
60-90 mins of gmail/skype calls (24X7 connected on them)
Use wifi in office and home, while 3G when am traveling.
1 hour of music play
browsing atleast a couple of hours
All my volumes are high
though I have the gprs switched off to save some battery.
checking my gmail is set on every 5 mins
a little instant messaging and sms

With this moderate usage, it lasts app. 10 hours in the daytime, making me charge it twice a day.
Apart from the bold passages, the use is moderate.
VOIP calls are said to be energy hogs.
Did you Skype-Call with 3G or WiFi?

Since I disabled the accounts plugins except SIP when not needed, a full charge can last me a good 20+ hours now on medium usage. I think the account plugins is the main cause of the battery issue.

Was calling for about an hour on SIP, it ate half of the battery bar..
