Yes, exactly, that is what I am looking for! A limited mode that sacrifices most functionality and possibly speed to gain maximum battery life for eBook reading. And yes, it should probably be a hidden feature so the mainstream reviewer crowd won't go on nagging about slow page turn rates (which I find very good in the eDGe, by the way).
