Well. It's been a week.

My only complaint: Battery life.

Wow. Just wow.

I had to recharge TWICE with the plug...! And it's not like I'm reading A LOT. I think I only logged about 200 page turns this week. I think I've used the light maybe for two hours of read time. I'm not completely draining the battery anymore, especially after the horror of what happened to my 505 on a drained battery (Half screen of death! Urgh!) So, I get to 50% and plug it in. Anyone else noticing problems with the battery holding a charge?

Does the 700 not go to sleep like my 505?
