It keeps recharging a bit when I plug it into my computer for a few minutes. Has anyone managed to run their battery out on the Aura?
Wow! I charged my battery to 100% the day I got it on the 25th, and it shut off on the morning of the 29th at about 10%. The next charge made it about a week. It's still going on the 3rd charge, but I'm not exactly overwhelmed by the battery life. I keep the glow light off most of the time and only use it at low levels evening and nights.

I didn't much care for the battery "warning", most devices give you a little spare time, enough to finish a sentence or even a chapter, but the Kobo just goes to a black screen that tells you to charge.
