yup. stinger is correct in his guess; i am a heavy reader (600+ pages a day), and i read in many small increments -- which is why the new auto-shutdown is also extremely inconvenient for me, and why it quite likely eats up my power faster than yours under normal circumstances.

however it does look like i might have a lemon-coloured kobo; the two other people who're doing tests are also heavy readers and are getting better performance than i do. so i guess i'll have to exchange my unit. but i'll do your test first; i'm real curious now.

i love all you geeky testers.
