My mother, on the other hand, is complaining about battery life on her Forma; she has to plug it in every night now. She reads probably 7-8 hours a day. No complaints when she first got it, but now she is annoyed. She is 88 and appreciates having an ereader. The Forma was a good reader for her: it was light and has been very durable (she can be rough on equipment).
If she has to plug it in every night after 7-8 hours reading, I'd say the shorter battery life is doing her a favor by forcing her to turn it off and get some sleep
