15% in 2 1/2 half days is pretty good for these devices. That's a "stand-by" time of over two weeks at that rate, which is pretty much on par with most other devices of this type and WAY better than previous iRex devices.

I wasn't really complaining - mostly because I've got nothing to compare it with since it's my first ereader. And it was a kind of genuine question - what - other than keeping the clock going - is it doing when it isn't doing anything such that it would presumably go from full to empty in a couple of weeks. Or, to put it another way, what's the difference, from the DR800's point of view, between being asleep - which it can be - and being off - which it can't.
