Thanks for any insights.
Also check your WiFi settings. If possible, turn your WiFi off when you're not using it. I've got my Comm Manager set as a quicklink, and when I'm not using Bluetooth or WiFi, those are off - since they constantly poll to check/maintain connections, it can drain the battery.

Also I notice my phone "turns on" from sleep at the same place every day on my drive home from work because it finds a nearby WiFi connection - so again, before bed since you won't be using WiFi - make sure it's off.

Good luck - a lot of people have battery drain complaints with the TP2, but honestly, it does really well for me now that I've honed it down and turned off unnecessary services.
