*loooooong being relative.  |
It takes slightly over three seconds for my Basic Lux 3 and my HD 3 to go from turned off completely to reading my book. (That's from the time I first press the button.) So, for me, the cost is well worth it for saving my battery life.
My old PocketBook 615 (Russian version of the original Basic Lux) takes about ten seconds (so that is quite a bit different). I've got magnetic covers for the Basic Lux 3 and HD 3, so if you're just putting the book down for a few minutes, they're instant on, like Kobos or Kindles.
The biggest issue for me is the placement of the on/off switch.
