This is absolutely not true in my case. I have 2 Aura HDs. The batteries in both stay charged for several weeks under every firmware EXCEPT 3.0.1. I noticed the problem because 3 days after I fully charged both Aura HDs to 100%, the one I was reading wouldn't wake unless I plugged it in (battery charge reported at <10%). So I plugged it in and went to get my other Aura HD so I could read. Tried to wake the other Aura HD (which was less than a month old at the time), and ... no go. It also reported a battery charge of <10%, and I hadn't used it at all since charging it to 100%, 3 days before. I have never experienced anything like this with any firmware other than 3.0.1. I am using 3.1.1 now and have been reading for 3 weeks on one charge, with 78% charge remaining.
