Artificial posted this on June the 10th, and I have to say after trying the same thing this past week, I came to the same conclusion.

While I haven't bothered to try to count page turns, I read for about the same amount of time each week and I have also, at the very least doubled
my time between charges, by turning the Kobo "off" when I am not reading.

This is very significant, and valuable, at least until the firmware update on June 28th.
