Good general point about battery life. What is the minimum we want before we feel constrained? If I get a week of reading (say 20 hours of active time or 1500 page turns) then I'll never feel restricted by my reader's battery. But at, say, ten hours of reading (thinking of a tablet PC) I'll start to feel tied to an outlet.
I would say a month (reading 4 hours a day, seven days a week, 4.4289 days per month).
