Please review my battery performance

I'm trying to figure out if this is normal or not.

I charged from 19% to full 21 hours and 16 minutes ago. The phone sat next to my bed overnight and then I:

Have made/received zero phone calls; no Bluetooth; no Wi-Fi; sent/received about 30 text messages; snapped a few photos; visited one website w/ one or two refreshes and I have one Widget (HTC Clock) running and only have one screen loaded with icons & the Widget -- the rest are blank.

Right now I am at 30% battery level.

As I do feel my battery has improved since I got the phone (last Tuesday) I do feel like I am not using the phone but the battery is draining.

Battery Use is as follows:

Cell standby: 41%

Phone Idle: 37%

Android System: 15%

Display: 4%

Camera: 3%

Thoughts?

Thank you.
 
Are you in a bad service area? Your GPS always on? Live Wallpapers? There's SO much than be running in the background. Do you have 1 or more emails set to constantly refresh and check your inbox?

During the night I was in a fairly bad service area. Now, I am in a good area.

GPS set to 911 only.

No Live anything; no animations.

No haptic feedback or vibrations.

Only 1 email account set up at the moment but am not sure how often it is checking for new messages. How do I check this exactly?

Thanks.

depends on what the app is. It's either in settings> Accounts and Sync.....or in the app's settings itself if you use some funky 3rd party thing
