Let's hope you're right.

The Bloomberg BusinessWeek review said it takes "Amazon's current-model Kindle 2 takes about three seconds from the moment you release the power button until you can start reading. On the Nook, it takes a minute and 50 seconds." I hope it recovers from sheep mode quicker than that!
min 50 sec? that's impossible of course . That must be the off state. This reviewer should see a doctor (and avoid tech)

note: The Kindle will take that long also from off.

The device would be worthless if this was true.
