I read a post suggesting turning off 3g to save battery but haven't managed to figure out how to do it. Anyone know how to do it?

It's very weak where I live, so I keep it turned off. This dramatically increased the batttery life. However, if I use wifi, it really kills the point. To the point that unless they fix this I wont be able to use my phone at any wifi hotspots without thinking its going to die.
