This is what Google has been announced recently — sites selling raw link for PR juice will be penalized.
So, did the recent update affected your blogs/websites?
It is also possible that this recent update is screwed in some way. If you remember some 6 months ago when that PR update was so screwed some sites easily get PR6 and even on blog I owned for 6 months got a PR8 page. Maybe this time, it’s the other way around.

Greetings from Los angeles! I’m bored at work so I decided to check out your site on my iphone during lunch break. I enjoy the information you provide here and can’t wait
to take a look when I get home. I’m surprised at how fast your blog loaded on my cell phone .. I’m
not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyways, amazing site!
I love your blog.. very nice colors & theme.
Did you design this website yourself or did you hire
someone to do it for you? Plz answer back as I’m looking to design my own blog and would like to know where u got this from. thanks a lot
