Haha this thread makes me laugh. Apple put in all that effort to come up with a battery friendly background notification system, and it seems to have failed miserably. I'm pretty sure true background task support would be less battery intensive for apps such as reminder apps.

Apple have added all these cool new features to the phone but you have to turn them all off to get through the day!

This is soooo true it is sad!

I can only have one e-mail account with push turned on and no 3G or wifi to make it all day on a single charge. I can't use the find my phone feature or the phone is dead in about 5 hours.

Very annoying. By far the best phone I've ever owned that I can't use because it's always plugged in.

Cheers,
