here's what I don't get- I thought the only battery use involved was when we turned pages on the Reader, and that page display did not take battery. (Music, dictionary, hi-lights, etc., all take battery too of course)

So why should not completely powering down the Reader overnight drain battery? If the machine is in sleep mode instead of off, but no one is there turning pages, why does it drain battery? Does it?
