I am so freakin' excited for the 3DS. I just HOPE the battery life is good. >_>;

Unfortunately Iwata did say it would need more recharges than the DS.

Well keep in mind unlike the DS the 3DS is always on. Its in a sleep mode like the Wii which means its going to need to be charged constantly.

How do you switch it off on a plane then?

1. I would assume there are 2 ways to turn it off - sleep mode and complete shut down

2. It probably doesn't consume much energy when in sleep mode - it probably sends a probing signal once every x minutes to find another 3DS and/or an Internet connection, and then and either goes back to sleep or, if it gets a response, it opens up slightly more, does what it is supposed to do, and then goes back to sleep.
