So with the full charge up on the 5th I have now read 98 pages with the brightness between 9 and 12, wifi on bluetooth off and my battery is at 50%.

This looks to be right in line with 4 days and 200 pages of my original post which seems crazy low.

Even if wifi halves the battery life as some claim, that would be 8 days of charge which is still just a tiny bit off from the 4-6 weeks advertised.

I'll play the rest of this battery out and then leave wifi off for the next cycle and see how much of a difference it makes.
