However you cant just leave it "on" so to speak as the reader will put itself into sleep mode if it hast been used for a while. This still uses power but should still last 2 weeks.
With the new Sony Readers, if you have power management on, it goes into standby after 10 minutes of inactivity and powers down after 2 days of inactivity. I like the 2 day power down. But I do not like the 10 minute standby. I'd rather it be 30 minutes. That would be much more useful.
