No, the E-INK DISPLAY only uses power when it changes, but there are other elements in the device that are using some standby power. I have no idea how much.

And whether or not that state is strictly in compliance with the airline rules, I don't know for sure either, but I don't think anyone anywhere (other than perhaps in the abstract in threads like this) would have a problem with it. Consuming electricity is not prohibited at take off and landing, as far as I know....
