Curious how the battery is for everyone and just trying to see some metrics. Right now I'm at 80% battery with 1 hour 21 minutes of usage and 5 hour 56 minutes of standby.
 
Yesterday I got 4 hours of usage, mostly texting and email. 13 hours of standby and plugged it in at 58%.

Day one was terrible, 4 hours of usage and 12 hours of standby and was completely dead. I did a calibration and has been awesome since.
 
Battery Percentage: 52%
Usage: 3 hours, 48 minutes
Standby: 6 hours, 44 minutes

I don't think the battery is -that- awesome, compared to what some people have experienced.

Calibration? Sorry if that's a silly question. 😛
 
I'm getting about 6.5 hours of usage, which mostly consists of web browsing over WiFi. I have 3G on, brightness set to around 60% with auto-brightness on, bluetooth off, push off, notifications off. That lasts me the entire day, even if I use it heavily (by my standards), but it's not as good as what Apple advertises. I did restore from a 2G backup, but I'm unwilling to completely wipe the phone to start fresh. I don't want to lose all my text messages and stuff, and I shouldn't have to. I may try to "reset all settings" tonight.
 
Usage: 5 hours 23 minutes.
Standby: 2 days 18 hours.
7% left.

Brightness about 3/4 with auto dim.
Push, wifi on
