Read the fine print. They are not hiding the fact. They say based on 30 minutes reading per day with wifi turned off and led light at setting 10. Translate - 28 hours of reading time stretched over 8 weeks. But that in itself says something very good for the Kindle. It means that they virtually use no energy while in sleep mode. It will be hard to find a lot of competitors that don't drain the battery by itself (even more so while in sleep mode) for 2 months.
