The v1 iLiad that I have has now been booted up and running for a total of 13.5 hrs, this after the first recharge. (a total of two full charge cycles) The battery indicator still shows at least one bar. A good part of this time it has just been sitting 'idle'. I believe that I have something like 5 hours actual reading time during this period.
Having said that, I *think* I remember reading somewhere on one of the iLiad forums here that the v1 unit gets about 12 hours use and the v2 unit gets about 15 hours use. (ymmv of course)
Question: does page turning take more power than just sitting idle?
re: battery upgrade - I was referring not to the 'free' upgrade that expired last year, but to the program whereby owners can pay for the battery (and back cover) upgrade. Sorry for the confusion!
-hope this helps,
Jeff
