I can never work this out either. Sometimes I think it hasn't reset the sleep timer from before the connect. But, other times it seems to stay awake for the full 15 minutes.

that the lost-most-recent-read bug is still around (see step 9 below), and that thumbnails aren't properly refreshed until after a full power-cycle.
There is some caching of the covers going on. The power cycle clears it. For the pre-tiled home screen, once the books left the home screen, the images were reread. I think this is still the case. But, there is definitely an error in this case. Those images should have been removed from the cache.
