Thanks. IN the end, I just turned off location services for everything. It may not have been Borrowbox at all, but rather some other app accessing the net when it had no reason to. I've disallowed location services for a ton of apps which have no possible need for it (why on earth would some quickfix game need that??) but clearly theres something at it all night and day. I'll need to go through the list of stuff again. Mind you, I don't find the Borrowbox "experience" as good as other apps I have. Sadly, Stanza is still my favourit, but its no longer possible to "scrobble" through to further in a book (for example if you began reading in a different app and could not stand it, and had to revert to Stanza)... this is only since the last iOS update. I'm seriously considering hitting the second hand market for a used iphone 4 on an older OS, so I can keep using Stanza. I still have my 3GS (and the first iPhone, for that matter) but I want the higher resolution screen)

I'm rambling.
