That's been my experience.

I rarely turn on 3G unless I'm travelling and require web distraction. There are so many ways to connect to data services, it makes sense to turn off what you're not using to save your battery charge. I forward my cell calls to the office phone during working hours, turn on airplane mode and I can usually get around 4-5 days on a battery charge. With all connections turned on, I'm doing good to make it into the second day.
