That's the BeBook Mini, is it? It appears as if it actually does pretty much totally shut down in sleep mode, but it's the exception, rather than the rule. Most devices do keep running in a more or less active state, even when "asleep". Eg, the Cybook Opus will drain its battery in about a week; the nook in only a few days.
