Battery still bouncing between ~95% & 100% at 5 pm CDT

Wonder (on the basis of ~zero evidence) whether the phone does a better job of minding the store on energy conservation with bluetooth turned on? That would be truly weird.
P.S. Bluetooth is just "on" - not in use with headset or any other BT device right now.

Battery is still bouncing between 95% and 100% at 5 pm CDT after a full-day at low EVDO signal, bluetooth on, but no BT use, except for a short attempt to sync via BT to laptop. So at least this little experiment shows having BT on does not tremendously drain the battery if nothing is paired/trying to pair with your phone. __________________
