If I disable hybrid mode, and change it to 1x only, I don't notice a difference. This is in a place where it would be constantly searching for an evdo signal... sometimes it will grab one with 0 bars, but it's uncommon. My situation is one where you would see a difference if there was one to be had.

in theory i think you would be correct. however, i can turn my phone on at 8am and use it till about 5pm and its close to being dead. then pop in a freshly charged battery then return home where im also usin an AIRAVE and my phones dead almost completely by 11pm...and im actually using it less...sometimes it even seems to get hot and i havent even used the phone. but it only does this at home and not when im out and about.
