I got this phone a few days ago and I was using just for calls + wifi browsing and the battery drain seemed reasonable. It would last maybe 2 days with GPS off. Now I have added 3G browsing and the battery drain seems higher even when I am connected to wifi (I believe when the phone sleeps it turns off wi-fi but leaves 3g browsing on?). It only got 12 hours on the last charge even though it idling for 99% of the time. Just by looking at the battery graph I can see that it is draining much faster when idling now that browsing has been added.
Is this normal to get much higher drain with 3g browsing? Is there a menu option to turn mobile browsing on and off? Is there an app to do this easily?
Also, has anyone seen any extended batteries available for this phone?
