It looks like you may have hit the nail on the head with your feedback on cell batteries. I think I've been too quick to generalize from my experience with cell phones because, even though I'm charging the Oasis itself quite frequently, it's still not at the same frequency as I would a cell phone.
Ok here is a good rule of thumb for kindle batteries, they need charged between 15 and 30 hours of read time. If it says a month or two month battery life, that is figured on 30 minutes a day of reading time. Personal opinion, they used that figure because it makes it sound like the kindle battery will stay charged for a longer period of time.
Good marketing but not realistic for heavy readers.
