After you close the pdb file it stays in memory (there are up to 4 docs active, just like on the dr1000), so even when you've closed the pdb file, it might still be doing something/ draining your battery. We could test this by comparing two situations:
1) open a pdb book, close it, put the device in standby and watch the battery drop (%/h)
2) open the same pdb book, close it, open and close 4 different pdf files, to make sure the pdb isn't still active in the back ground, and watch the battery drop (%/h)
On iRex 1000S, I can use the tabs to switch between documents.
2 questions:
- How do you know, it's 4 as well on iRex 800?
- Any "trick", to switch back to another document, if it's still in memory - similar to the tabs on iRex 1000S?
