Well, I don’t use the Touch any more (I had major problems with the external and internal SD cards and my Mac), and I think I had auto-power off set to 15 minutes. This was to preserve battery life on trips when I couldn’t be sure of power access.

I’ve got a similar set-up on the Icarus; I read on it for about 30-40 minutes on my commute, rarely on my lunch-break, and occasionally at the weekend. So power-off is best for me.
