If it can be put into sleep mode by closing it, then it can probably be put into the same power-saving mode from software. So, this raises the question: what signals can bring it
out of sleep mode? If the only signal that it could possibly respond to is opening the edge, then it's not easy to implement kappert's wish.
But it should be possible in software to implement a mode where it:
- renders a page
- goes into sleep mode
- gets woken up by a page turn button, repeating the process
- have another button that wakes it up fully, returning to normal function
How long does the wakeup process take? 10 seconds? 30? It might not be as responsive if in this mode, and pen input would not be possible, but it would enable very low-power reading.
