I understand that for a laptop 15 hours is really good, but not for book reading (why I initially bought it for).
15h (or so) is the battery life of the iLiad v2, which has a larger battery than the original v1. The v1 will typically work for 10-12h on a battery charge, provided that you don't make extensive use of the stylus or WiFi.

The new iRex DR1000 readers currently have a battery life of about 5h, although this should improve with future versions of the firmware.

For comparison, I read on my CyBook Gen3 for a couple of hours a day, and at that level of usage, the battery charge would last about 3 weeks.
