Get a Kobo Arc, once it hits your area. Yesterday it only got down to just under 40% during 5 or so hour reading session (switching between comics and a novel I'd borrowed through Overdrive; much prefer my Touch for reading text, however) - while I was streaming music through Sky.fm/DI.fm the entire time. I suppose I might have to charge it more if I watched video, but plugging it in when I go to bed is more than good enough. ['course, I habitually keep the screen down to like 20% brightness - and it's still very, very bright - which keeps the consumption down]
