I haven't used my Kindle 2 very much for a few weeks but over the weekend I noticed that the battery seemed to be draining very quickly. Yeterday I charged it fully. In less than 24 hours the battery drained to less than 50% with the radio turned on.

Has anyone else seen this? I am going to try turning the radio off and see if that makes a difference. I live in Toronto, Canada have pretty good 3G wireless coverage from Rogers in my home where the K2 was located over this time period.
