Another one by Stephen Fry has not a single picture but 17.8 MB and my cookbooks go up as high as 220 MB. Where old editions of Harlan Cobens "Myron Bolitar" had 0.3 MB the new ones have 4.4 MB. Mind you, none of them has a single picture or map that could cause this.

Like othes have said, it could be a mixture of big books, wifi on, playing with it a lot because it is new to you...

Another thing: Are you sure you are on the latest firmware? IIRC there was a firmware with a shorter battery life.
according to sync, yes, but I heard that that might not be correct always. it is 4.20.14622
