Okay, some people are probably wrong? I understand that e-ink really only draws power when it's painting a page.
Oh, could it be that if you have wifi ON then it's a "good thing" to turn the device off since that should disable wifi as well? And in sleep wifi remains on? This is only a guess!
The only reason I see to go into sleep at all is that accidental touches could change the page, etc. I'm going to have to get a case one of these days with the magnetic on/off thing. Don't really know if I want the added weight and the need to flip open/closed ... I really only use the reader in my house.
