iPod 1.2 software causes battery drain?

hey there

has anyone else encountered problems with the battery draining after installing the 1.2 update? i never had problems with my iPod doing that until the update. I have it set to turn off after 15 minutes. However i won't use the iPod for maybe a week and when i try to use it the battery has drained or has 5 minutes of power. I fully charge it, use it for maybe an hour and then the next time i try to use it later there is no power.... i have the clock on, could that be draining the battery?

also, wierdly no matter which backlight time i choose the backlight always stays on.

anyone else encountering these problems? or know of possible fixes....

You might want to do a search, I've seen the topic discussed before.
