Hmm, that's interesting.
To me, nook is one of my readers with the longest battery life.
I constantly have to recharge iRex 800 (*) and BeBook Neo for example. After about 4 days in standby, both run dry. nook, although being used more intensively, by then still has more than 60% of its charge.
(*) iRex has identified a bug when using PDB files. After opening PDBs, the reader doesn't enter standby but remains active. They'll solve this in the upcoming firmware update in about 4 weeks.
Concerning speed of turning pages: It seems a bit slower than my Sony 900 or iRex 800. But still above average (meaning faster). And given its way lower price than Sony 900 or iRex 800, I'm absolutely fine with it.
In fact, to my own surprise, nook is one of my most frequently used readers (out of 15 eInk devices in total).
