Yes. That is exactly what the problem is.

Research that many of us have done, with the help of programs like Palladium's BattLog, has shown that with BT turned on, (not being used,) and on a phone call... the phone can eat up 800mA.

That's ridiculous.

Also, I just let my phone sit for a bit, in stand-by, with data session connected, and it does fluctuate... it sits at 5-15 most of the time, and spikes to 230mA, if it starts pulling data...

On an active phone call, my Touch uses 220-280mA, with the screen on. With the screen off, it's pulling 180mA. This is using the earpiece.

There is no reason the Pro should pull 800mA on a phone call, unless the radio was horribly flawed. Also, my phone runs about 30 degrees cooler than the Pro.
