It appears to drain the battery a bit fast, but I think it is a firmware problem wherein the device thinks it has less battery charge than it does. It can be at 50% when I plug it into the computer to load a non-Amazon book. That takes a minute or two, and when I unplug it the charge might go up to 90%. There is no way the battery would charge that much in such a short period of time. Most devices I've had in the past that did that simply needed a firmware update to properly address battery charge levels. But i still get several days of reading, perhaps 20 hours are so of use, before it drops to 50%. The 3G is worthless, but I blame that on AT&T which sux in my area. other than that I love it. It will be used most of the time whereas my K3 will be used only when I need portability.
