Mine doesn't do that, at least unless either it's having trouble connecting to the accounts or my wifi network is on the fritz.

Well, there is one other case in which it happens: When both the Twitter plugin and the Skype plugin are active, it sucks down the battery like there's no tomorrow (which there isn't, when they're both active..it dies after about 14 hours instead of closer to 30)
