Do you use Mail for Exchange? I've had a similar problem with PR1.3, and it seems to have something to do with mails (modest). Now I have disabled automatic mail syncing for Exchange, and so far this problem has not re-appeared!

can you load up terminal and type
Code:
top
Then press enter.

If you can put the screenshot (Ctrl+Shift+p -> goes in images/screenshots folder) up here it will help!(Use the volume rocker to zoom in and out if needed)

thanks.. am going to read all of that and see what can be done
interesting observation though not sure if that could be a problem

changed the sim card to a new one(brothers) as compared to mine which is 4 years old and am attaching the screenshot with 4 apps running in the back ground, seems to have improved slightly

but will follow the thread and try and figure out what needs to be done
as always suggestions are welcome

thanks a lot man

good luck
Post back if it is still odd - there are always some quirky apps that push the processor up - usually resolvable
