Re: Thanks to the iPhone..

I seriously hope you don't have 3G data enabled, or you're really just hurting your battery even more.

Everyone has been over this before - 3G uses more power than WiFi. Yes, really.

Of course I have 3G data enabled. I'm not going to facebook, browse DSLR, et al on EDGE.

Even EDGE uses more than Wifi. let's see, about 20 mw transmit power vs up to 150 mw(and almost always higher than 20). Which do you think will drain the battery faster? I'd say turn on wifi when it's available.
