I was able to get a new battery for free from Verizon via warranty because mine was needing to be charged by noon everyday - they said that is not normal and something is wrong with the BATTERY, not the phone. Just a thought.
My battery was initially crap after the update, but I've done everything suggested (cache clear, cycle the battery, smart actions) and now I'm getting EXCELLENT life out of it - I can easily go all day without charging it and just charge it up every night.

Now there is an idea.
Trying Juicedefender in earnest. Will report back. JD includes a lot of what are now called "Smart Actions," but periodically turns the radios on and off to save battery. I was told that it may not work, but if it looks like it's working I may buy the full version. I'll let people know.
Turns out the default for non-gmail accounts is a "push" setting that checks constantly. You can change this in the account settings, but it means you will take at least 15 minutes to get an email. Longer if the radio happens to be off with juicedefender or for some other reason when the phone tries to pull.I haven't read through all the posts so if this is a re-post I apologize. I too had very poor battery results after the update. In my case I had to double check some email account settings and reset them. I believe my phone was constantly checking for new email. Once I did that my battery life is pretty close to normal.
