Putting it in a computer bag may take longer than the critical time.

Would you be able to do a test by shutting your Glo down with something (screwed up tissue, for instance) on the screen and then sleeping it and reporting the battery use over the time you had it asleep, please?

I'll try tonight. I have a piece of plastic, 1/2", that when I drop it on the screen, causes a selection.

1) I'll note the battery level
2) put the plastic on the screen
3) slide the switch to put it into sleep mode
4) leave it alone overnight
5) remove the piece of plastic
6) wake it using the slider switch
7) note the battery level

Sound right?
