I would pretty much attest that my PRS-505 used to go into a power save mode and 'sleep' after about 15 minutes of no activity. I was fine with this.

I've had the device now a little over a year and a half of active use. The screen stays active for almost an hour now without going into what I think of as sleep mode (blank screen, need to power back up to view).

Has anyone else experienced this?

Although I have checked the settings options, these appear limited to Yes or No and do not provide increments.

I have to wonder if this affects my battery life since I have to recharge at least 2 times or more often per week.

Any thoughts?
