Anyone else have alot of today plugins and have poor battery
life?

I recently came into contact with a HTC Wizard.. well being as how I love tinkering with devices, I put WM6 on it.. Man the battery lasts days!!

If I unplug my Apache, within 20 minutes it's already at 80%.. I am running the HTC Home plugin, Live messenger and the HTC BT Quicklink today plugin..

I have those exact same plugins running on the wizard, live msgr connected and it lasts all day and into a second..

If I do this with my Apache, it wont last 4-5 hours.. Is this because the Apache is using EVDO vs the EDGE network? requires more battery power? And also the fact that the Apache is 416mhz vs the Wizard's 195mhz?

I'm just trying to find the huge difference in battery life..I dont understand it. The battery in the Wizard is only 100 more mAH than my stock Apache battery..
