I edit for a living. I've spent months prepping for work daily by reading online for about an hour each morning on iPad; I get up to speed, take notes and go straight into a daily meeting. iPad also lets me catch up my e-mail on the go before work.

Reading also is my main hobby. I haven't watched TV in years. It takes me two to four hours to read a book, depending on content. I can easily read a book a day and still have a good amount of time to goof around on my iPad.

I was taking a long break from work when I got my iPad, and I did run outta battery power then, but I was using it for easily 10 hours a day.
Like you, I have both an iPad and a Kindle (actually, two, Kindles & a Sony). The iPad is a fantastic device, but for reading, I prefer a Kindle. But I love the iPad for word processing when I'm away from my computer, and the apps are fantastic.

What kind of editing do you do? Proof-reading?
