what apps can i stop?

I upgraded Facebook a to 1.3 the day before yesterday and yesterday my battery dies REALLY quickly. When I looked at the Battery usage it was High (~40%) for Android System. When I looked at the Partial Wake it was almost ALL Facebook - despite the fact that I wasn't using the app and had deleted the Widget. Force stop got rid of it (and I've changed my SIM card since which meant I had to take the battery out) and, so far, so good.

If you've done the upgrade too Michelle, that might be your problem too.
