Please also consider that the 16.000 pageturns are a fictional value. It is a "standard" established by PVI and actually means IF your reader is already switched on and IF you have a 16.000 page long document ALREADY OPEN and IF you continously press the page forward button without letting go of it, you should get 16.000 page turns ( at lab temperature!).
So please consider the page turn claim a moot point and just think of it as a long battery life...

cheers,
kaas

p.s.: navigating in the ebook reader, opening a book, paginating, etc ... all cost electricity and are not considered for page turn claims!
