umm iPhone does NOT have a constant 3G data connection I can tell you that much.
make sure to shut off data connections when ur not using data to save battery as well.

I found that disabling skype from being always online improved my battery life dramatically. Which is I guess to be expected but still a bit disappointing

i have always had location/gps off. i removed all widgets, turned wifi searching off, brightness on 2 bars, etc. im starting to think its pretty lame to have a phone thats supposed to multitask and have a nice ui with widgets but i cant because the battery will only go 4 hours lol.
i also have rootsh installed...maybe thats the reason?

Can I ask you guys why you aren't keeping your phone plugged in to the wall at night? It seems that would solve your battery being dead/alarm not going off in the morning problems.
