Post #310,676 by pwhysall 7/9/09 12:41:57 PM Reply	...badly. My iPhone, with 3G turned on and in use, will be dry in no more than about 3 hours. This is on-par with other 3G phones. Turn it off, and I have to charge it every other day (and that's with wifi turned on). The heat generated by the 3G receiver in phones is indicative of the power being used.
