From what I have read the Vox screen will use more energy then an e-ink screen, it is back lit LCD. No way around it. Evidently e-ink screens can hold the print as is without power just about indefinitely.
People pleased with the battery are probably coming from laptop reading. My Macbook gets 4 hours of heavy web surfing and about 6 hours if just reading. I have to plug it in every night before bed so would never even notice it an issue plugging in the Vox.
Did you like the screen image it presented compared to your Wireless when reading?
