Let us know if the replacement is any better.

There seems to be a big question mark regarding whether poor battery life is just par-for-the-course with the Kobo Reader, or if replacement units actually perform better.

According to the poll I started (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=85476) about 90% of Kobo's have less than 2000 page turns per charge. Admittedly only 20 people voted in the poll :P
