Yup. It doesn't happen frequently that way, but it has happened. I have an Oberon cover that I added a magnet to in the cover pocket as I don't like the official Amazon cover very much but wanted the same functionality. Sometimes the magnet doesn't seem to "get through" all the leather, or the magnet doesn't exactly line up with the PW magnet, and the PW freaks out and goes off, stays on, turns off the light but leaves the book on the page (and I never have thought to try paging forward at that point so I don't know if it is still "on") and sometimes will leave the light on but will go to the screensaver. It's a quirk that I thought was just caused by my magnet hack, but apparently others are having similar issues with the official over as well?

This definitely affects battery life as well.
