From what I know, the Gen3 does not have a clock. So when you turn it off, it loses the time and you'll then need to sync it again to ge the time/date back. According to HarryT, the Gen3 should last about 4-5 days without being turned off. And the time/date will be kept while the unit is not turned off. So, if you have a library ebook and can read it in the time it takes for the battery to go flat or you don't mind syncing to the computer every so often, then it will work. But if these stop-gap measures are not for you, then there really is nothing you can do. So yes it will work, but not perfectly.
