They claim 4 days with wireless and 2 weeks without. 4 days might be true if you're in solid 3G country and you don't do anything else; if you're in an area of variable signal, the constant shifting from EVDO to 1X and back will drain the battery twice as fast. As for two weeks without, obviously this depends on number of page turns and how many hours a day you read. If you read on font level 1, your battery will last longer; I read on level 4, so it stands to reason my battery won't last 2 weeks. But even then, they must be estimating only a few hours of reading per day.
