I get about 3500 - 4000 page turns per full charge, reading mostly Connect books, using only the internal memory. I counted as "page turns", each time I turned it on, and each menu page change.

I think that .rtf files drain more power than Connect books, at least when opening them for the first time in the Reader.

I wouldn't rely so much on counting how many pages you get per battery bar because for instance just this week, my Reader went from zero bars to two bars during the same session. And yesterday, while reading, it was still showing two bars.
