Get a Seidio 1350mAh battery and you'll easily make it through a day unless you're in a low-signal-strength area w/ no Wi-Fi.
But no, I saw maybe a 5% additional drain on my battery with the patch, EASILY a trade-off I'm willing to make in order to get my Pre to be as responsive as I've always thought it should be. Just imagine: webOS on an 800x480 screen with a 1GHz processor and 1GB of RAM. What a dream that would be...cost be damned.
