This is a feature/bug (depending on your point of view) designed to prevent the device from being accidentally woken and using battery if, for example, it got jiggled while you were carrying it. The theory being that if you don't touch the screen to do something in X amount of time it was an accidental activation to on. The work around for this is to do a VERTICAL swipe which won't change a page or activate a menu, but will cause the timer that causes this to shut off.
