I assume that you had BT and Wifi Off? This may be the key. I will bet that if you use no talk/data tonight and make sure that BT and Wifi are Off, you will still have 45% to 50% in the morning.
Ya, BT and Wifi off. I haven't even turned those on beyond the first day since battery life has been so poor.

I turned Data back on tonight and left Direct Push off. Just to see. But it's only been an hour and I think it's already dropped 10%.

Juicy just came out with a new ROM 2.4 today, so tomorrow I'll probably load that up and see if there's any difference.
