battery lasted 12 days ... from full charge. No reading (turned on every day or so to check charge). My first test (with the memory-stick in) went about a week. Started checking in to this when I realized I was only getting about 1600 pages on a charge ... after my initial charge had lasted closer to 5000 ... difference being the addition of the memory stick. Am going to email customer service to see if 12 days is reasonable ... given an advertised 7500 page flips, that would be an overhead cost to your battery of over 600 pages per day, if you don't read anything ... seems odd, but perhaps not out of line with what I've encountered with some Ipod's. So ... back to reading (without the memory stick) to see how many pages I get at this point ... will probably wait for this result before any emails to customer service. And ... yes, before anyone asks, I power down, and I have no mp3's to accidentally play.
