I would like to know if you have seen an improvement that you attribute to full drains, and full charge cyles. Tonight will be my 2nd full drain and charge since getting this 3G iphone so I can't say yet.

So please answer like this:

TOTAL FULL DRAIN/CHARGES: X
IMPROVEMENT: NO/YES

FULL DRAIN/CHARGE: 2
IMPROVEMENT: very slight, but noticeable

I have drained my battery and fully charged it about 7 times. I am really noticing the charge holding a lot longer than when I first got the phone. I was really upset when I saw how fast the battery drained the first couple days. Now it's running pretty good.

Drain/Full charge cycles: 7

Improvement: YES

I cant tell you exactly how much improvement, but it has been considerable. I can make it through a full day without dying, wouldnt even get close the first couple days. I use pandora quite a bit, browse several forums, myspace, and facebook, all on 3G. I dont do too much calling. Mostly the social networking apps mentioned above and email and text.

I bought my iPhone on 7/11. I intentionally did a full drain only 2 times, but I have run it down to about 20% unintentionally a few times. Usually I plug it in whenever I can and always top it off and keep it plugged in all night every night. I think doing this a lot actually helps.
But when I do go all day without a charge, my battery life is dramatically improved. At least 3-5x more than day 1.
