At least on my Kobo Wifi, sleep does do something: it blinks the power light every minute or so, using power. It also seems to keep the OS awake to respond to any button pushing, no matter how accidental. I turn mine off just to keep from coming back to random pages or books from when the buttons get pushed accidentally while residing in my bag. The battery life extension was an unexpected, added treat.
For the record, I keep wifi off at all times with my reader.
