    Default bluetooth uses more power than wifi since froyo

    Ever since Froyo, under Battery Use stats my EVO shows that Bluetooth is using more power (16%) than WiF (9%) with both powered on and WiFi connected to home router yet BT connected to nothing. Need to be on battery (off charger) for a couple hours before it shows up.

    Anyone else seeing this? A coworker is seeing the same thing. Is there a fix?

    It may not be so much a problem with bt as they may have just optimized the power consumption of wifi. Just a thought...

    BT should be significantly lower in any situation.
