right 9hrs since last charge on froyo. overnight sitting doing nothing, 13% on android system which seems to cover checking service, settings, network location, bluetooth services, accounts and sync, widget download manager etc.
not bad but force closing certains apps is not stopping the phone starting gthem back up like stocks, news and weather etc. (trying it without task manager)
still seems that all these background running apps are unneeded and should come with an option to not run them unless opened lol.
oh and battery dropped from 73% to 50% on the 9 hrs standby.
