If I don't turn it off, its battery is depleted very quickly. I assume the same is true of the 1000S.

Au contraire! The DR1000S is lovely! Best money I've spent on a device in a l-o-n-g time! (I live in the US and as a doctoral student I was
desperate for a reader which I could load and carry around all my journals and readings. The DR1000S is so absolutely PERFECT, I cannot ever imagine not having it.)
You should consider it if your objective is to read full size PDF readings. This baby rocks!
