Jack, can you (or anyone) elaborate on what apps can help manage this, and / or common apps that are notorious for doing this?
Also, is there an easier way to bring up the running apps list then <gear> -> More... -> Applications?
My wife is getting remarkably bad battery performance on her Kindle Fire; I think that at least sometimes it's because some app is using wifi. I wish there was some kind of "I'm just reading a book" mode that would quiesce everything on the device not involved with reading a book.
