As far as the poster that said that ereaders don't use battery when not used-- you're wrong. When I switch ereaders, I've left a fully charged kindle (and later nook touch) sitting unused with the wifi off. I went back several weeks later to find that the device was dead.

The eInk nooks have an auto shutdown mechanism to save battery if not used for extended periods. The nook classic would shutdown after 3 days. The STR is 2 weeks if memory serves me well.
