Yes I know there are an infinite amount of these threads but I wanted to share my experience and get some feedback on it.

So I have a 3gs, about a month old. I average 5 1/2 to 6 hours of usage everytime. I rarely use 3g and have it set to off. I'm almost always on wifi which is where most of my usage comes from. I text a good bit and talk a little. I play games and use many apps like facebook and MySpace. I have location set to off and go back and forth with push and fetch because push seems to never work right (one yahoo account). My brightness is at about 60%. I have Bluetooth off and notifications off. My service seems to go from 0-2 bars on edge when I'm at home. So I'm not sure if an average of six hours is all that good. Maybe it's kind of in the middle of the pack from reading other peoples usage. Just wanted to share.
