elcreative,

Thank you for clarifying the actual lifespan of a reader's battery. It is good to know that Sony's battery is much more powerful that I previously presumed. But, can you please also explain, why a notebook's battery run out/die out far quicker than this 400 (or as in your explanation almost 800) charges? However, I have never been able to use a notebook battery for 2 years (minimum) , not one and a half year (maximum).

Secondly, I am enquiring about this battery issue just because, I am also a Hanlin V3 user. In that reader, if you standby the gadget and leave it for weeks, battery does not drain itself off. As far as I see, this reader is able to shut all its processes unlike to Sony reader 650. With an evidently superior technology than to Hanlin V3, I would like to reach such a great battery life span in Sony Reader. Why do you think, Hanlin V3 would have a better battery performance?

Thanks,
