Do you have automatic mail retrieval on?

Because now that automatic mail retrieval works (it was broken in 2.1), your phone will be doing stuff a whole lot more often than it was before.

The iPhone also goes into a 'deep sleep' mode around the 15 minute mark - checking your emails at 15 minute intervals ensures this never happens so you'll fly through battery life.

Indeed I believe a lot of the battery life 'improvements' delivered in 2.1 were the unintentional side effect of automatic mail retrieval being broken.
