Battery dies under 3 hours of usage on IPhone (V1.13)

Hello All,
I just got the iphone last weekend and I noticed that the Iphone dies entirely too quick (under 3 hours). I remember seeing a thread in here earlier about 1.1.3 and battery issues. does anyone know what the problem may be? Thanks

Do you have the e-mail setup to check very frequently? If it auto checks for e-mail it uses up your battery faster than manually checking.

If not, something else is going on. I have 1.1.3 and mine lasts all day, and shows about 75% left. I didn't notice any changein battery life from 1.1.1 to 1.1.2 to 1.1.3.

i do have the email set to check every 15 minutes. Thanks...I will try that and see if it works. any idea on what else it could be?

i read somewhere to let it die completely down and then fully charge...not sure what it does but i did it when i was having battery issues and it seemed to have solved the problem:)
