So 15 hours reading time.
While I can get 12 hours from an LCD device, so it doesn't really seem like eInk has a huge battery advantage anymore?
No, it doesn't work like that. Because you don't use "extra" juice if you don't page on e-ink devices. While your LCD device will always ask for "extra" juice as long as you have it turned on (because the screen will always ask for juice...)

that duration of the battery, I always take with a grain of salt, at least on the e-ink devices. Sometimes the battery of my Sony drains within 2 weeks (heavy reading) and sometimes it takes over a month (light reading).
