as with bum programs, is it possible my email retrieval or 3g usage has some sort of battery debilitating loop bug? my email is supposed to update every 5 minutes but its more like every 5 hours, or when I restart my phone... also, im using 3g right now in class (as my wifi wouldnt load any pages after claiming to be connected successfully to the school wifi, and my phone is getting very hot... much hotter than I rememeber with wifi usage, is this normal?)
