Mine is actually set to power down after a bit, 30 minutes I think. And it sounds like I'm still not getting as good a life as you did without powering down bulek.
I'm using two 3rd party readers, kindle and overdrive, as well as the bundled reader (which handles my pdfs very nicely). Are you using only the included reader? Perhaps that could account for the difference. Maybe it's optimized to trigger sleep between page turns.

Either the AG2 idles very efficiently, or it sleeps very inefficiently, and I'd tend to suspect the latter.

Well put. I don't know a ton about it, but there are different levels of sleep in android. It would be mind-boggling to have a reader that can't sleep deeply, even with the wireless off. Booting doesn't take that long, but it certainly takes longer than the half a second it would take to rouse the device from effective sleep. After I finish this test, I'll try to test sleep vs off.
I really wish companies would hire devs from xda. Not the crazy ones, obviously. The guy who makes my nexus 4 kernel is fantastic and very responsible. Focuses on stability and balancing battery life with performance. My nexus battery life is fantastic vs stock. I bet he could do wonders for AG2.
