Well, after a long week (which i've been working like a dog) I've been able to test the battery life.
It's broken down into usage:
Sun: First boot: read for 40 mins
Mon: full reboot: read for 40 mins
Tues: full reboot: read for 25 mins
Wed: full reboot: read for 45 mins
Thu: full reboot: read for 45 mins
Battery Flat:

So it looks like I got 3 hours and 15 minutes I always did the full power down after I had finished reading which I meant a full reboot each night.
I'm guessing that I could get a full 4+ hours if I don't reboot. And since the reader uses standard Nokia phone batteries I might just purchase a spare (I have one in my phone anyway)
I have got to admit that the matching battery is great. I went to visit my brother last weekend, and took the V2 to show him, I needed to charge the battery so I just swapped it with my phone and charged it in the car on my way down to visit him.
I haven't had chance to investigate the page locks yet, and i'm severly missing the bookmark functionality.
here's hoping that a software update may fix that.
