How Long Does Your Iphone 3GS Battery Last?

I got a full charge yesterday. This was around 9pm and my battery is now drained. It lasted about 19 hours or so with moderate use. I know this depends on the settings but i'd like to know on average how long your battery lasts regardless of the settings. thanks guys.

Have you re-booted the phone? I'm just 1 day in and haven't given it a real test, but initial impression is that it's lasting somewhat longer than my 3G. I'll post after a test.

I have noticed a decrease in battery life in my 3Gs compared to my 3G, its probably 3.0 but after 11 minutes of usage and 40 minutes of standby my battery had lost 11% of its charge, which does not seem right. so im hoping they fix this with a future update if it is the software.

My battery life is much worse than my old first gen phone. My buddy said that he had a similar problem until he turned off push notifications.

I'm hoping they resolve the issue in a firmware update.
