Interestingly, I sent them another email asking just about the same question. Here was their reply:

My Email:
Thanks for the reply. Although I do have one more question. How does 1000 page turns and one week worth of use fit with your initial claim of 2 weeks or 8000 page turns? Is there something wrong with the actual devices/batteries/firmware that is limiting them? (ok, that was two questions...but you get my point).

Thanks again...Jim

Hello Jim,

Well how long the battery lasts depends as well on how frequently and for how long you use the device. That will affect how long the charge lasts.

Thanks again!
