Show me somebody who has gotten weeks of battery life out of their iPad by turning off the networking and leaving the screen on all day. I tried to take notes with my Surface 4 and the thing didn't make it through a day.

Sure but don't come up with Sony marketing rubbish 'weeks of battery life'. You won't get weeks with the DPT RP1 if you leave the screen on - the footnote on their website regarding the 'weeks of battery life' states that the device has to be in sleep mode after 1 hour of use every day (whilst using the stylus up to 1 minute) to reach 'weeks of battery life'.
If you use the DPT RP1 for hours onwards whilst scribbling notes on almost every page - as I do with most academic papers - you'll need to recharge it at the end of the day or the next day.
Again, just be honest about the device and don't copy the Sony marketing garbage talk here.
