all you really need to know if you will NEVER have to charge it more than once a day and you SHOULD never have to charge it for any week long vacation of trip if you start fully charged and don't use wifi.

that is more than enough to keep me happy. I recharge my kindle DX every few months.

I just got a kobo mini (for when the kindle dx is just too large) and so far I am in love with this thing. its just SO HANDY being so small. I am going to work on a nice quality water proof housing since I discovered I can turn OFF sleep timer!! once I "load a book" I only need touch points. go forward go backward. this way I can take it in weather the beach of on the boat without fear :-)

I BET it would not be too hard to actually waterproof this bugger against splash risk.
