After letting my touch get a full charge last night I unplugged it and locked it. I was told leaving it locked saved battery life since the initial power up was not needed.

Well I go to turn my touch on in Class this morning and it tells me it has not battery! What happened! I didnt leave wi-fi on or anything it was just locked with the screen off.

Can someone please tell me what could have happened and what could prevent this. I really dont want to return my new touch for a another one because of battery problems =(
 
Locking it means it is still running... so of course its going to use battery life!

There is no problem with your unit.

Was it plugged into a computer that went in sleep mode or got turned off? because the ipod will drain battery if this happens. You'll never have this problem with a wall charger.
 
This happened to me the other day as I left the touch in sleep mode and came back the next day with the battery totally drained, but my fault as I left the wifi on. I leave it in sleep all night sometimes and now come back the next day basically where the battery left off the previous day, but unplugged of course.
 
No it was fully unplugged from my Mac^

Destroyer, any idea what happened when it got discharged that night?
