I installed Locale a couple of days ago and haven't noticed much difference (keeping in mind that my battery life was poor to begin with), but I LOVE the app. Might have to do some more testing and see how it impacts battery life. Anyone have experience with it?
Yes, I applied the SMS fix and was still getting 100% awake time. I noticed via Taskiller that there were two Locale processes running. (one if the Locale service was 'disabled' in the app)

I've been trying to save battery for a couple days by disabling WiFi and GPS, etc. without any luck. So I removed Locale and the three plugins and my phone sleeps as expected with the screen off.

It seems like an awesome app but I just can't have it running the processor all the time.
