FWIW.

Aha! I had been trying to keep away from that particular metric - <i>when</i> is the critical time? Without any hard evidence at all, I'd say that the problem arises during the first 0-5 seconds if using the switch (enough time to flip a cover over). Putting it in a computer bag may take longer than the critical time.
Would you be able to do a test by shutting your Glo down with something (screwed up tissue, for instance) on the screen and then sleeping it and reporting the battery use over the time you had it asleep, please?
However, there is the other question that has been raised earlier - how wide-spread is this problem? If this is a general problem, why aren't more people recognising it? Part of it could be that so many people are used to smart-phones and tablets, and so think three days on a charge is good. However, if it is a broader problem, there would be others like the people stating the problem here, stating the problem.
