I normally get 30-48h usage. Could probably extend that if i didn't use the phone so much.
Are you using any availability for IM or voip? I think that if people don't require presence, then they don't need "always on" connectivity and could just as well use auto-disconnect to get max battery life.

I want my phone always-on so that I always have presence, and that was the promise of the phone for me. I'd like to hear if anyone has good battery life while maintaining a voip or IM presence but it seems unlikely. I get around 9 hours with a mix of 3G and Wifi throughout the day.
