I've seen a decrease in battery life after 2.0.2. I need to charge everyday now. It was not like this before with 2.0.1.

Is this just me?

While i haven't personally noticed this (yet), this could be attributed to the fact that they tweaked the 3G signal/reception/antenna, and the 3G radio might be using up more juice. Go through a day without 3G on and a day with it on, and compare usage times. Just a guess, though...:)
 
i turn off 3G 95 percent of the time. I couldn't go through today off a single charge listening to music....
 
I think that my battery life has gotten worse after the update as well. With the 2.0 it was working fine, but after updating to 2.0.1 and 2.0.2, I think it has gotten worse and worse. I used to have more than enough battery to last the whole day, and now I need to charge it a little bit to finish off the night.
