Hi shadow

I just finish reading battery section in onboard manual, it recommends to fully charge after fully discharged for the first three times. I am guessing by the time we are on last bar the reader will be so slow for us to recharge it right there, but we will have to see. I ahve already turned some 2100 pages along with numerous pc connection without charging and it is still running at full tilt, kindle battery sucks even with wireless off.

As I understand from discussion here that eink screen only uses power when page turning but I think power is also used when pressing any button to access a menu, sleep button press, sd card ejection or insertion etc. Anyway I am very happy with ez reader.
