My phone does that. It's not one of them thar fancy fonez... just a regular non-cool phone (but it IS purple!).
But still... and my sister's whole entire house is a dead zone, so my battery dies every time I'm over there.
The batteries in phones die quickly in low signal areas because the phone is constantly searching for a stronger signal.
