For example, I saw that some PDFs need far more cpu usage for loading than others and perhaps it'd shorten the battery life as well with or without scribbling.
And I don't have interest on Kindle and even haven't seen a real one, but just saw it and its specifications on 'MobileRead Wiki - E-book Reader Matrix'.
In my case the DR800 will definately reach 2 weeks. I used it intensively during a short 8 day holiday. It was fully charged on a Sunday and Monday 1 week later the charge was at 50% I read 7 books in that time each about 500 to 600 pages long.

I am using the beta firmware and that may make a difference
