It seems to me that this is the main selling point of the Jetbook Lite versus the original Jetbook and the Aluratek Libre. I'm concerned about how long the non-replaceable lithium ion batteries in the Jetbook and Libre will last. Because their batteries will have to be recharged often the useful life of these readers may be pretty short. The Jetbook Lite should last indefinitely because it uses ordinary AA batteries.
