Trying it now... Will report back over the next few days.

Something has to give! My battery life sucks. I've order additional batteries and a charger (since I'm digging the phone but am feeling abused by this battery thing).

I've been running Juice Defender and haven't seen much improvement.. ever so slight.

My phone syncs with a exchange server and I NEED to use BT... WiFi isn't so important but if it helps battery life (over having the phone connect over 3G all the time) then I'll use it.

Anyway... I've now done the hard reset and will be judicious with my app installation and see if I can get better battery life out of this thing. either that or I'm mailing it to one of you guys that has the marathon phones and letting you tweak it for me... LOL.
