I'm saying that it is insulting that rather than respecting that someone may have a different opinion than you, you accuse them of being a PR shill instead. Besides I know nothing about business/marketing/PR. If throwing around accusations helps you ignore the fact that some actually have a positive opinion of iRex, at least accuse me of being one of their developers.

Regardless, I think it should be obvious to anyone following the IRex corner on MobileRead that IRex on the whole has one of the most miserable records as far as battery and power management goes in the entire e-reader industry. It appears to me to be a constant complaint along their entire product line

Absolutely true statements for the iLiad and DR1000 up until now.

and it doesn't seem to be an issue they show any real capability of fixing.

From what many of us have seen so far with the DR800, they certainly seem to have fixed it (or at the very least made a vast improvement, if you don't consider several weeks of standby to be "fixed").
