(This is half-remembered from reading about the hardware some time ago.) For now I'll just leave the battery out of the phone when not in use though as I said it's a bit of a PITA.
Okay, it's been about 10 hours. I turned the phone back and and the battery level has not changed.
I guess this confirms the modem is still draining power from the battery even while turned off.
