I have Froyo and I am getting a solid day out of my battery, without issues, and I am a pretty heavy user.

You ever stop to think that you are the problem and not the OS? Everyone else seems to be getting along fine.

EDIT
Also if you don't like those extra apps that Sprint puts on there, root your phone and put a custom OS on it.
While I'm not too concerned about these apps that start up randomly, they shouldn't start up to begin with. If I receive a phone call, why would the text messaging app start? Why would Sprint navigation start? Uninstalling an app isn't the answer.

This is you having too much time and looking into things that shouldn't concern you.

Do me a favor go onto your windows machine and try killing svchosts or system or even services. It won't let you, weather you agree or not Android has all of these process open at once and that is how it is run. Very similar to Linux.
