Your battery is fine. But the battery meter isn't right.

Android power lasts about the same as windows even if it gripes.

Boot back into windows before it usually dies on windows and it will be about the same battery level... based on use of course.

Listed in the FAQ of the main thread as well as other places like the HTC Wiki site.

you may already know about this, but install a task manage app. and then have it kill extra applications running behind. The more applications you are running at the same time, the more power it drains, specially the apps that constantly refreshes and uses networks. Rule of thumb is to kill that apps that uses network, or at least increase the network sync interval. It helped me.
