After rebooting, I read for awhile in the evening and when I put it away to sleep it was still at 43%, a good sign. Woke it this morning after a whole night of sleep (me and it) - still at 43%!! Yes!

So, it appears that rebooting it does solve this problem. One wonders if the battery really is draining during these episodes, or if the Nook just THINKS it is. Also, I sure hope I don't have to do this after every time I recahrge it. We shall see...
This actually might be a battery calibration issue rather than a battery drain problem. A lot of Android builds take a time or too of running down the battery / reboots / etc before the battery calibration is correct.

Without running the battery all of the way down, it's hard to tell if the percent is accurate yet.

I haven't seen any battery problems so far...I haven't charged the NT at all since getting it on Father's Day (minus plugging it in a couple of times to load books on it). But I run wi-fi off.
