Even on large eBooks, there should be enough memory to hold a significant number of pages in memory to minimize access to the SD card. Bottom line, I think there's no need to worry about battery life and SD cards.

Badly designed soft or firmware could cause a problem.
The memory card should just sit there until needed after initial handshaking.
