I do not think that the above can be done in one month by a programmer. What are the grounds for you affirmation regarding this?
By my understanding you either use libraries or you write the program (PDF reader) from scratch.
In our case (M92) il looks like the programmers decided to use Adobe reader (not sure what version is this) and on top of that they use third party libraries to implement highlighting and scribbling. If these libraries do not have the functions you mentioned this is not going to happen soon.
We all want what you mentioned before but for some reasons the ereader producers do not see the situation like that. Most probably the 10" are mostly used for reading only not for academic purposes. A poll in that sense would be interesting..
