Should it be using a full battery's charge in just a few hours while the keys are locked? My N810 goes for days powered up with the input locked off of a similar battery. The PocketBook should be doing nothing but monitoring for a keypress while idle. Looking at how quickly my battery is draining today, I don't think I could sit and read a whole novel in one sitting off of a single charge... it's certainly not getting "8000 page refreshes on one charge".

If it's really the firmware, and I have to downgrade to a firmware earlier than what came on the device avoid locking up constantly, and it quickly drains the battery while idle, I think I'll just return it. Hopefully someone else has better news. (At this point, I'd take "it's defective, return it for a replacement" as "better news".)
