sakcpa - You may want to look and see what else is running. I am a very heavy BBM user and talk for 2 to 3 hours at a time on the phone without killing the battery. Granted after a couple long phone calls I need to charge because I am using wifi (and I have gps not turned off) at the same time in order to BBM, email, etc... But you should definitely get more than an hour of talk time.

Could just be a bad phone, bad battery, or some other issue. Are you getting 1X or 1XEV for signal? When I am running on 1X, I get shorter battery life than I do with 1XEV, but that is the only thing I see as an issue for me and that has nothing to do with the phone.

What OS version are you running? Also, your profile says you are using an 8330 (you may want to update that it makes it easier for people to lend a hand)
