EVDO and battery power
Where I live, Verizon is in the process of switching from 1x to EVDO and so my phone often switches between the two. My battery does not last very long. I just returned from Boston, where the switchover to EVDO has been completed, and I found that my battery lasted more than twice as long there, having lasted more than four full days with substantial call usuage.
Someone earlier posted that the switchover to EVDO causes battery drain. I can now attest to that.
