    Mine occurs even when I don't have bridge active..It happens as long as I have the app installed on my phone, even with bluetooth off.. the only way I seem to get it to stop is to turn wifi off or to delete bridge.

    Hmmm.... you're right. I tuned off Bridge and Bluetooth and it's still pulling data through Wi-Fi. If I turn of the Mobile Network, it still pulls data through Wi-Fi. The only way it seems to stop if when I turn off Wi-Fi. When everything is ON, except Wi-Fi, there is no data consumption....so it is definitely something coming through Wi-Fi. It started the moment I updated to OS 2.1 and Bridge 2.1 and hasn't stopped since.

    Ya... very annoying to say the least.. I downgraded back to 2.0 from rroyy's website... My phone won't last the day with all that heavy battery drain.

    I'm using an older Linksys WRT54G 1.1 router. The main issue with this seems to be the additional strain it is placing on the 9900's battery. It seems to always be "pinging" the PlayBook, even if there is not actual bridge activity....
    Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing the Bridge app on your phone? Would also recommend you unpair with your Playbook and then repair after you re-install the Bridge app.
