What are my app options for battery improvement apps?

I've tried Juice Defender, myself. Seems decent. The only thing I dislike about it is that it seems to turn off data when the screen is off. Which, I guess makes sense, as data is probably what uses most of the battery. But I use Google Voice for texting (so I can text for free, without having to pay for it), and when data is off, I can't see if I've gotten any texts unless I wake up my phone.

From what I have seen around the net and heard from friends and family, pretty much all 4G phones blow when it comes to battery life--hence the existence of juice defender and these types of apps.

Easy, I'm just joking around haha. But if we're being serious, the TB has the worst battery life of the 3 current 4G phones.

Loving green power. Works extremely well and it is much easier to configure than juice defender IMO.
