Hi,
I got my K3 on release day. Did a full charge when I got it (charged until the LED turned green). I installed 3 books, and then had two good reading sessions of maybe a few hours.

I pulled out my Kindle last night to show some friends, and discovered that the battery had drained. Is this normal?

Should I be turning off all the wireless functions? Even with them on, I had hoped that the battery would last longer than a week.

I'm charging it up again to see if it does the same thing this week.
