That is NOT how you use an eBook Reader in the real world; it spends most of its time sitting there waiting for you to turn the page, during which time the operating system is running and consuming power.

Well darn it... marketing speak that got through my filter. I was, like others, expecting it to mean that I got to read 8000 pages between charges. Ah well, thanks for the clarification HarryT. Might be time to hand off the Cool-ER to the Missus and look into a sony for myself.
