Normally I help people with questions when they should search, but seriously? You don't even need to know what to look for here, just type Pandora into the search...

Windows Live and Google Sync will decimate your battery, especially if you have a poor service. There's some programs which will do it too - SmartLock will. Turn off push e-mail and it should last a lot longer.

On my TP, without push e-mail I'd have maybe 60% battery after a day, with great service all day. With push e-mail enabled, it would be below 10% every time, if not dead. Same goes here, though the TP2 doesn't have as terrible of a battery. I've still been yet to get my TP2 to have the battery life my TP did but I don't have as much stripped out either - weather updates, e-mail every hour, etc and I get through every day just fine.
