My battery life has been good, like my Touch or better, but I haven't had time to give it a real workout yet. I also power-off instead of sleeping, but I do have auto-power-off and auto-sleep settings configured. (It's either "sleep after 5 minutes, off after 10" or 10/15.)
Thanks for sharing.

Turning you device off instead of sleeping in between reading sessions will get you good battery life. The problem occurs during sleep mode – so it's not surprising you're not having any problems. Then again, you might be one of the lucky many who can sleep their Glo all they want with no extra battery drain.
