But now that I've settled on one font and been reading straight, I notice the battery has gone from ~80% to ~20% in one day. no wifi, light on 12, no book indexing (I only have 9 books loaded anyway).
Unfortunately, nothing new there. People reported many crooked screens with PW1 and I have seen such reports with PW2 too. (My PW1 has a slightly lopsided screen.) Also, some reports of battery draining fast. There is a thread for battery measurements.

I have never seen lopsided screens in regular e-ink Kindles, none of my several Kindles have that, only the PW1.

It seems all those layers and manufacturing the frontlit touchscreen assembly has left such problems in the process.
