No idea what Guitarheroes and dopewars do... are they actually running ? all the time ?

Otherwise.... do you have "push" email going ? constant email polling ?

your 100% roaming is probably doing some damage... if you can afford to, try an experiment... put your phone in Airplane Mode for the whole day, see if that makes a difference.

if you're going roam... do the force roam option.

otherwise... perhaps you have a bad device or battery... order a cheap extra battery from ebay and use that, see if that makes a difference.

I've had mine for 8 mos now... one of the batteries is starting to lose capacity so I just swapped it out. I get a full day's worth of usage, including about 30-45mins of talk, 30 SMSs, several email polls (but NOT push), several web surfs. All in all, not too bad for a 1300mah battery... I do have to charge every night... I do NOT leave it on the charger overnight though... always worried about overcharging... so its best to pull it off the charger after its fully charged...
