You won't get anything like 8000 pages on any eink device. Some people report two to three weeks. I usually get several days worth. I can always complete a book, but not 8000 pages.

p.s. I suspect that one page turn is actually two pages. Once when it flashes and once when it actually draws the new page. For example, the Cybook Gen III actually had the option to turn pages without the flash. This would equate to a 4,000 page capacity if true. Furthermore, I think it assumes you are just constantly turning pages quickly. In real life, there is a load due to processor time, reading from the SD card, etcetera.
