iPhone 3.0 Push Destroys Battery Life?

Yes, according to french news site Hardmac.com: "Some users have been complaining that the battery life of their iPhone 3G was dramatically reduced following installation of iPhone OS 3.0. It seems that the firmware is draining more resources when the Push option is activated." Although, according to the Apple Discussion Forums, all that may be needed is a reboot and possibly recreating your push email accounts, and your former battery life can be recovered.

(Drain the battery at least once fully, too.)

According to some in this thread, this may simply be the result of your iPhone indexing for Spotlight, and that waiting until it's done could just cause the battery life to improve naturally.
