Pretty sure the ir sensors stay on. My mini I carried in my backpack or pocket and the battery discharged very quickly at times. Sometimes in a day. Would last for weeks with far more usage when I was using it at home only. Sony 350 was the same. The sensors being on is probably not a problem but the fact that they are being interrupted a lot on occasion.

I poked and prodded my 30 for a day or so once when it was off and that seemed to make the battery deplete which is strange as using the touchscreen to turn pages when it is on does not seem to do this.
