Sleep/Power Off Settings

Quote:
1) Your Kobo Reader will now go to sleep after 15 minutes. This was the best balance between usability and battery life.
2) Your Kobo Reader will power off after being idle for 30 minutes, and a new very obvious power off screen will appear.
I just got a Kobo for Christmas and I think it's great. I was curious about the sleep/power off settings and I found this post. I read in bed a lot and I tend to fall asleep when reading, so I think the sleep/power off settings are a great feature. After reading this post, I tested out these settings and sure enough, my Kobo will go into sleep mode after 15 minutes of no activity, but it does not seem to power off after half an hour or longer. I actually left it on and didn't touch it for over three hours only to find that it was still in sleep mode and not powered off. Am I missing something? Is there a way to make it power off after a certain time of inactivity?
