I have the setting turned on, but yeah - it's a little different from what I want. I thought there might be an easily changeable setting in one of the system files, but it seems not. The Pocketbook support also answered negatively, although mentioned that they will add this to their list of suggestions (which I guess is their polite way of saying "Shove off!").

Don't know if this helps with your tight schedule.

Just think about all these 5 s intervals adding up over your lifetime
But nah, it's not about the schedule - it's just a psychological block for me. I love keeping the ereader off as it saves a ton of battery charge, but it also makes me less likely to pick it up for short reading sessions (like in a bus, or when waiting in a queue, or when cooking something and waiting while the oven pre-heats), because every added second feels like it's an added "weight" towards your decision to turn the device on.
Like, if it only takes 5 seconds to turn on, then it's less bad, but if this time is doubled, then maybe I should wait for an opportunity for a longer reading session instead.
I don't know if it makes sense to anyone except my miserable mind, but it's been a problem for me with every reader I ever owned. Pocketbooks are the best so far in terms of quickly powering up, but that long button press just doesn't sit well with me.
