ios6 battery drain

Anyone else experiencing this? I installed 6 on my iPhone 4 and it's a vampire squid sucking on my battery. I've turned off all notifications and locations services, too. Hope there's an update soon!

It's 2-3x better than 3G, even more so than 4G (but that's academic for the 4/4S). OP should use it as much as possible!

I put my phone in airplane mode if I'm just playing games. But, I rarely use 3G...
