As the website state, the battery should last about 8000 page turns.
No it shouldn't - that's just hype from PVI, the screen manufacturer, which every reader manufacturer quotes, but which bears no more relationship to "reality" than do the fuel-consumption figures quoted by car manufacturers.

It means that if you fully charge the battery, and then turn the page as fast as it will go until the battery is flat, then you'd get 8000 page turns. That is not the way that an eBook reader is used in the real world, and in reality you'll get nothing even approaching 8000 page turns.
