3g connection always on!!??

[Tiberius23]

Hi,

I use active sync with ms excange server over 3g/hdspa (trinity)! When I set schedule to "as item arrive" trinity is always connected via 3g, and I can't disconnect (except when I choose manual sync), does anyone knows what's about power consuption if is 3g always on but there is no activity (logically, I think that it will drain battery down!!??)

Regards!

According to MS the battery drain should be minimal. That is also my experience.

us people with hermes will tell you that 3G kills our batteries... especially us that use an always on connection (like pushmail, IM, etc)
