Most of us use medium text size, so, a full charge should last about 8 average novels or roughly 2 4-book series.
(Right now, I'm on my 6th novel with 50% battery life left.)
As for Rob, I don't know what novels you read, but 2,000 pages per novel...  (4,000 page turns, with each page being two page turns).

Dear Acreo:
Yes, I know you can get more than two average novels on a single charge. The problem is that every time I try to break it down in simple terms (such as novels per charge) someone in a booming post yells and screams. Also, people occasionally tend to pin my butt to the wall for the least things... so I am always on the conservative side. Being the "spokesperson" for a company is never easy and many people seem to hang on one word. Recently I was kidding about Griffey and his famous chocolate sauce and if he was there "he would barf chocolate sauce on a thread". It was meant as a joke but taken as an insult (not by Griffey). I drove away a good poster on that frivolous and meant-well statement.
So, I TRY now to not go overboard with any statements... even meant in jest!
