I checked email ONCE... and I'm down to 56%.... all in less than 4 hours.
Now... I understand if I'm running slingbox, listening to Sirius, sufring the web, playing games, etc. But c'mon. Losing 36% of my battery in 3 hours doing NOTHING?
What could be causing this? The ONLY thing "running" is S2U2. I know it's a battery hog... but this much?
Suggestions? I have tired all the battery tweaks, etc. I just refuse to have to take cords with me EVERYWHERE I go, just to make a few phone calls.

It must be that S2U2 thing. If I didn't have push mail running, my phone would probably go a couple days. I have Goodlink where I get about 100 e-mails a day for work, and my personal e-mail through Hotmail where I get about 30-40 e-mails a day pushed. With my Diamond, I had to change the battery at least twice a day. With the Touch Pro 2, I can usually go from 6am until 9pm-12am without changing the battery. Granted, I'll usually change it in the afternoon anyway, but it's about 3 times as good as the Touch Diamond.
