I am a new Droid X owner (on my 3rd day) and this is my first Android phone. I came from the Verizon Touch Pro. I have been reading through numerous pages here and else where about battery problems, GPS bug, bugs etc. I do not have an App killer because i have read that android handles it for you (unlike wm) and they don't work kindly with froyo (Came stock). I have noticed from the start that the phone battery does not last very long even with lite to moderate use. I did a test today. Plugged my phone up last night, unplugged (100%), rebooted, and left home about 10am. Had 2 very short phone calls, sent maybe 4 text messages, no web browsing, no gaming, turned screen on to check time few times, 3 or 4 emails come through, etc. I have sync set to check my university email every 4hrs and social networks every 1hr. Screen timeout set to 15secs. My screen brightness is set completely to the left (low). Phone had been on for about 6 hours total and is at 60%. This was me HARDLY using the phone. My Touch Pro would still be at around 90% or more. Please tell me this is not normal for this phone...
I read somewhere that spareparts can help find apps/services that are runaway killing the battery. Here is what I recorded when I got home.

I have no idea what app the PID 10002 is. Is there a way I can find out? I have terminal emulator on the phone, but not sure how to list apps etc by PID.
Questions:
Thanks to anyone who is kind enough to help me out!

Questions:
- If i receive an email to gmail, does it get sent to my phone within a certain amount of time or is it push...?
- What can I do to fix this battery problem or is it a problem with this phone? I have restarted the phone, closed apps and services...
Thanks to anyone who is kind enough to help me out!
