Today I discovered by testing it out that the delay is just a delay in the screen image changing. The device stops registering touches as soon as I slide the power button. Meaning it actually goes to sleep immediately, it just doesn't look like it

Same for the Aura HD however I would still love to know just what the firmware is doing during that delay. What I was more worried about was the old bug where touching the screen would cause the ereader to never finish going to sleep being resurrected. Leaving an object on the screen while putting it to sleep does not seem to affect the battery life in a limited test sample of 1 unit.
