Hi, I just wanted to clarify about the battery life. It says a month with half hour reading time for new non touch kindle. So you can read for about 15 hours only? What's like 1-4 books only (depends on how long). I thought battery life is amazing for these devices and even if it's double for the other models it sums up to 30 hours or so. I know it isn't accurate or anything but from that is written it doesn't look very good. It makes it a bad device for travel (if the above is correct), if I don't bring my computer, my kindle is useless (or I have to buy the charger).
And it looks strange that the battery life is calculated with half an hour reading time every day. How often do you read a book for only half an hour? I read it in 1-2 days. I could get it if it were an hour a day or something like that, but why on earth half an hour?
How many books do you think you can read with one charge? How long does it charge via usb?
I plan to buy it but want to find out everything before so as no disappointments.
