Wow your rate is muuuch lower than mine at rest. I have wifi, bluetooth, beam, weather and activesync all off. When I turn on the device I see 113 before it goes up to 175 with the backlight on then it drops to 157 with the backlight dim.

Here is the part that makes me think I have a broken phone. I turned the phone to Airplane and the numbers did not change at all. What could possibly be drawing such high numbers. All radios are off completely.

Just for fun I turned on Bluetooth and Wifi and push email and the number went to 298mA.

578 to 672 mA initializing GPS with live search. Then settled at 566 mA once a fix from gps was made.

Thanks for the help Cappy. What is your reading in Airplane mode?
