They're matching B&N's formula of 2 months based on 30 minutes reading per day with WiFi off. Amazon's old formula was based on 60 minutes per day. IOW, they're identical and B&N was just being cute by cutting the reading time per day in half.

Battery Life: 2 months @ 30 minutes/day = 1 month @ 60 minutes/day
