It just seemed odd it happened the day I updated...oh well, I guess it happenes! Thanks guys for the help.

Not sure if the battery is dead. I have the same problem, after I updated to 2.2 my battery went from 10-12 hrs of heavy use to dead after 7 hrs of NO use. I went to the sprint store, they said, we can order you a new battery. So i patiently waited & figured I would shut the phone off & charge it & take out & put back in the battery, i now have 45% battery after 12.5 hrs since my last charge. I have no idea what happened, but i wont complain. Sprint did say there was a defect with the battery charging & holding a charge.
There is also a machine they have that will drain/charge/repeat the battery which is supposed to increase battery life dramaticly. No idea why they wouldnt do that with every battery to avoid such issues, but hey, who needs logic.
