To date, I haven't seen it and I really get the impression that the kool-aid around here stops any of you from expecting that either.
I think you're comparing apples to oranges. On the hardware level, they're just too different to make any blanket conclusions with regard to battery life. The newest BB Torch, for example, has a 624MHz processor, a 3.2 inch screen and weighs 5.7 ounces. The Fascinate has a 1GHZ processor, 4 inch screen and weighs 4.1 ounces - 1.6 ounces LESS. And earlier BB's had even smaller (and sometimes FAR smaller) screens and slower processors.
It is unfortunate that the carriers load up Android phones with all kinds of battery sapping bloat, but that can be solved by rooting and removing it. You won't get an argument from me that that shouldn't be necessary, but it is what it is.
