Imagine my surprise when I saw it was still on, displaying the page of the book I left it at!

I double checked my settings and it was indeed set to sleep after 5 minutes, so I did some testing and found that in pretty much any app, it will indeed go to sleep after 5 minutes. But if I leave it open in a book in the kobo app, it stays awake!

Anyone else noticed this?
I think there may be different settings for how long it takes to go to sleep if you have a book open vs. if you do not have a book open. I've never timed it, but I still haven't seen mine stay lit for an hour.
