Anybody experience any issue with battery life after the firmware update?
Mine goes from 3 to 4 days to barely make it overnight after the firmware update.

I've actually seen more battery life w/ 1.1.2. But perhaps that's because I'm not playing any games or doing anything useful with extra apps*.

*still bitter about being forced to upgrade w/ a restore.

I might have a bad battery, maybe a glitch.
I'll wait and see.

FYI for future updates: You can shift/option 'upgrade' and select the updated restore file. It will do an update instead of a restore that way.

OP: I have seen better battery life with 1.1.2 than I did with 1.0.2, and about the same as 1.1.1.
Batteries are always quirky...
