I've been using a je-100 for most of my reading lately. I'm using the mobi app to read my books and I'm pretty happy with it. I turned the brightness levell way down and I do most of my reading indoors. It's a win ce device and it does have a suspend function which I think is exactly what you want. When I'm not reading I just tap the power button on top of the device and it about a 2-3 second shut down. Tap it when you're ready to read and it comes on instantly exactly where you were when you suspended it. I think it has about a 5 hour battery but I bought a hi capacity battery on ebay that gives me 30% more power for $4. I've never had the battery run out on me but I've only had it for about a month now. I never turn it off, just use suspended mode when I'm not reading. Every couple of days I'll plug it in to recharge from my pc. It uses a mini usb so I've always got a cable available. I've never plugged it in the wall to charge it. It does plenty more since it's win ce but it's not perfect. I also read comics on it also but I think I need a bigger screen (this one is 7"). It comes with it's own leather like cover so it's pretty much good to go out of the box.
