I haven't heard mention of this but my unit never turns itself off. If I leave text on the screen and come back a few hours later, the text is still on the screen and it works normally. I thought the unit was supposed to enter standby by itself after a period of time. Is this normal?

On the other hand, my battery does not appear to be discharging in only 4 days either.

Would it be better to just let it stay on without manually putting it into standby mode so it doesn't have to refresh and wipe the screen?

EDIT: I will answer my own question. No, leaving it on does not give better battery life. In fact, it lost about 22% during the day since it never went into standby mode.
