diabloNL, please take a look at my first thread:

Basically I had the same problem (usually I don't read fast) but it seems the 1 month limit is common to all PRS-500.
If this is not a physial battery limitation but firmware/software issue ('running OS' while being switched off, whatever it means exactly) then I wish Sony will do something about that. I would be more than happy to see still 4 bars after one month (with little reading) even with the increased time required to switch on ('booting OS'). Probably the best option would be to have a choice: 'hard switch off' (maximum energy save, longer start up) and 'normal switch off'. Unfortunately first Sony firmware update was far from perfect so I'm afraid they won't solve the battery problem anytime soon.
