gizmodo.com— Sure, the iPhone 3.1 update delivered a host of new features, including the exceptionally tardy MMS, but for some users there was something extra: Crappy battery life.

i would say my battery life has been good, until tonight when i went to check something on it and it would not power on and i have plugged it in for over an hour and it just gives me the low battery power sign.
It's bad. Very bad. Used to be able to go 2 days without charging. Now, I can barely go a day. Often less. I even brought my charger with me to work. No push, no bluetooth; just WiFi and 3G. And...3G is horrid! I rarely even get it. Travelled to VA this weekend and had EDGE most of the way. Had to charge my phone once I got there, too.

And here I was thinking it was my iPhone's battery just coming heading closer and closer towards its inevitable death.

I am having the same thing and I haven't even updated to 3.1 yet. It's completely random and I haven't found a fix for it yet.

Easy solution.. take it to Apple and get it swapped if it's bothering you.
