    i dont reall yknow if its normal but this happens to me too everyday..
    i remember reading that its very important to not let your iphone battery go really low or run out, ever, since this may cause your battery to have a shorter life-time..

    Really? Usually when you buy the new phone you need to do a complete recharge for a few times !! No?

    You need to recharge and charge completely 4-5 times in the begining....
    and after you can recharge when you want!

    Iphone uses Lithium-ion battery which cannot be completely ran out, they must always hold charge at some point. If you let the battery ran out completely, it will kill your battery. The reason some people say you need to wait until the battery completely ran out is for the Nickel-cadium battery, which has memory effect so you must complete used up before you charge it again. Bottom line, depend upon the material the battery uses, it can be either way.
