About the "iDrain" issue: I'm still not clear: is the battery dying quick because a constant download or other radio connection, or is it non-radio related? (ie: is it also causing a strain on AT&Ts network or not? I know in Bobo's case it is, but the others?

If anyone is experiencing severe battery drain where the battery dies in a matter of hours after a full charge without user interaction, then it is radio related. It's the mail app constantly sending commands to the email servers. Therefore, I imagine this is causing strain on AT&T's network.
