I done a baseline test on firmware R2BA023 overnight and its returns to levels of R1BA001 firmware. So I am going back on to R2BA020 as that seems to have the best battery life at the moment.

23 seems ok to me. better than 01 (which still had the standby problem for me)

but lastnight my phone was on standby for 11 hours and only lost 5%

infact with 4 hours of use on 3g downloading apps and facebook/emails its only lost another 7%
 
Currently on R2BA020. Fully charged and discharged it twice and it is now holding the charge extremely well. 8 hours of normal use and I'm still on 87%
Before I charged and discharged it was crap so I think the key to a good battery life is conditioning the battery.

Last time I checked it was around 400Mb ~
 
I know a link has been provided, but does anybody know what has happened to Doodle Jump. Luckily it is still on my phone, but as I paid for it and it has now disappeared where would I stand. Does removing it from the market mean the developers have given up on the Android port. Or do you think it is as simple as the new firmware causing gremlins with the market?
 
Maybe the updated Doodle Jump doesnt work with 1.6 so it doesnt show on the market?

Just a guess but... :)
 
probably breaking my record here. not used the phone loads admittedly as have been busy with other things. but wifi has been on a lot and its been going in between gprs and 3g

1 day 12 hours 31 minutes unplugged

61% remaining . safe to say this update has fixed all problems because on the old one even if i just left the phone on standby it would be flat by now
 
Ditto Andy. Mines been on since 6 hour 45 minutes and its still on 94%.
It was on all day yesterday and only went down to 89%
Very pleased with the battery now.
Not going to charge tonight and see how long it will last :D
