Device: Kobo Glo HD
New Glo Hd User- Battery Concerns

I received my Kobo Glo HD this past Thursday (the 17th) and I love it- but I'm wondering if my battery life is normal? I fully charged it when I got it, and it also did some charging while I transfered books from Calibre the next day. The battery was 94% on Friday night. I've only done about 6 hours total of reading (although my stats say 3.4, but I know I've done more). The reading light was on each time that I read, but only at about 4%. I have it set to power off after 30 minutes of disuse and I keep the wifi off. The battery is already at 55%. I really haven't spent much time doing anything on the kobo other then reading. I'm sure the light has a big impact on battery life, but I wanted to check just in case.

Also, I've heard that it's possible to change the number of page turns between screen refresh on the original glos (beyond 6 pages). Is that possible to do on HD's? If so, can anyone tell me how to do it? Thanks!

One more thing I'd like to ask about (sorry!): When I connect my kobo to calibre it says that calibre is unfamilier with the latest firmware of my device and my collections are disabled. Has anyone else heard of this? Anything I can do about it? I'd love to manage collections through calibre! I have the latest updates for both of these.
