My battery is actually better with 3.x (been running 3.5 just for today, but been troubleshooting activesync so she had a lot of juice, no way to tell)

I pulled MSN off my custom rom, it can decide to start and connect and never stop (thus killing the battery)

acbPowermeter should show if you are pulling EVDO data.

Idle w/evdo connected & idle is < 100ma (more like 20-30ma)
Sleep is about 15ma, but not measurable via acbPowermeter
Evdo active is 300ma+ and kills the OEM battery within 3.5 hours if its constant - its very obvious.

Did you forget to turn off 'receive beams automatically'? Thats a very bad thing for your battery (constant sniffing, and if you happen to be around a lot of BT or IRDA noise, it powers way up to see if anyone is really sending....)
