Right, but even if I'm not updating the display I can be hitting the CPU pretty hard between display changes...or not!
That is in your case.
But the basis being used is for the purpose of reading a book.

Which was my point - you where mixing Apples and Oranges in your reasoning.

Just to clarify and be sure: does that mean if I'm running my Javascript and web page repaint for less than 2 hours of CPU time before recharging, and the rest of the 11 hour block time I have the device sitting idle (but NOT have the Kindle in sleep mode)
I do not mean idle, I do mean asleep for the other 9 hours.

Keep in mind, the Kindles have a meta-stable display - -
they do not have to be running for the display to continue showing what was last written to it.

That might be the point you overlooked when you thought the device was running while displaying a book page.
"meta-stable" == does not require refresh
