Very curious, Dr Watson.

I'm wondering if anyone has noticed a predictable pattern with the light in the Aura HD (f/w 2.8.1), in regards to the Sleep function?

If I put my HD into sleep mode while the light is on, or simply fall asleep and it puts itself to bed, then the light switches itself off. All well and good, and what you'd hope would happen.

But I seem to have discovered a new drinking game: when I wake the Kobo up, will the light come on again automatically? (It often does.) Or will it remain switched off, and wait to be switched on manually? (It often does that, as well.)

So far, I haven't been able to find any predictable, repeatable pattern to which one happens and under what circumstances. Has anyone else?
