Most likely the battery is getting on and near the end of the life cycle - do you have an Apple Store locally? They may be able to check the battery condition and you should still be able to get the battery replaced by Apple though for the 3G I think this will require sending it away for a few days.


Has this happened suddenly or has it been gradually worsening over time? If suddenly, may be worth resetting the iPhone.
