Because it’s easy for the cover to open, not all sleepcovers have that elastic strap to keep it closed. A bump here or there and it will turn on. Been looking at this a bit more and I think we are both right, it’s a feature on the Glo & Mini, and in Kobo fashion they have made it a bug on the Touch.
On firmware 2.4.0 for the Glo & Mini, under the Settings menu, Sleep & Power has a second screen which relates to Sleep Cover support. The Touch running the same firmware release doesn't have this extra screen. On the Mini & Touch, if sleepcover support is disabled (by clearing the check box), when the reader is woken from sleep mode via the slide switch the reader will stay on until it goes to sleep after the specified sleep time (i.e. 5 minutes) instead of 60 seconds.
Unfortunately we don't have the option of disabling sleep cover support, the option controlling it is gone, however the short timeout code is still there putting it into sleep about 60 seconds after it has been woken.
