Still, the battery seems not last that long according to Sony's official notes.

So, want some comment from the 600 owner about the battery. Or is there something I can do about saving the juice or charge it correctly?

Thanks!
It's the "two weeks" that's the issue. Unless you fully shut down the PRS-600, it's running continually, and the battery is being drained. If you're not going to be using it for a while, you should shut it down using the menu item; that will preserve the battery charge.
