NIME.

Battery drain depends on how you use your ereader, and Sony say leaving it on standby with a memory card installed may drain the battery slightly faster.

[with 4GB SD card installed and all books loaded on card]
Leaving it on standby between reading sessions I get 12 - 14 days usage between charges, battery down to 1 or 2 bars.

Powering it off between reading sessions and I get from 25 - 34 days between charges, battery down to 1 or 2 bars.


The SD card currently has 689 books, all epub files.

YMMV
