this is about the 10th time its happened... i will be somewhere below 25% and all of a sudden. Bam. zero power and its giving me the plug in image. I plug it in, after it boots... its back in the 20% range??
it will not fire back out without plugging it in. Its random too... i can go days before i charge, so i know the battery is lasting fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Something is definitely screwy. It could be a corrupted setting or a battery issue of some short. I'd put it in DFU mode and restore it then set it up as new and gauge the battery performance for a few days. It also won't hurt to take it to a nearby Apple Store and have them troubleshoot it for you.
