Hey,

I'm wondering how fast the battery life of an iPhone 3GS should drop (approximately, of course) over say an hour with the screen turned off?

I've been noticing lately that I'm losing too much, I.E, 5-10% an hour, etc., I have push notifications turned on but during the time I'm thinking of, I received none, I also have MobileMe but no changes were made during that period either, and tmk (to my knowledge) MobileMe no longer pushes e-mail. Fetch is set to manual, no apps were opened at the time, etc.

Any idea's why? I usually turn my screen off when I want to save battery life but that isn't working too well now lol, the iPhone is about a year old btw. I'm wanting to know any settings I can turn off that are power hogs constantly... ^_^
