SD Card issues?

I've had a couple of issues with a SD card.

1) First of all I had a 2 GB card in and the battery life dropped significantly. Someone on another thread suggested trying another SD card, which I did (1 GB) and the battery life seemed to be better, but still significantly shorter. With the 1 GB card in and an afternoon of reading (2-3 hrs) it went from a full battery to 1/2).

2) I've had a lot of trouble getting the SD card (both of them) in & out of the Kobo. It seems to go in ok, but I have to wiggle it around to get it out (after it has partly ejected with the spring).

Anyone else notice these things?

Definitely had issues taking the card out - gets stuck in the same position you indicated. Will keep an eye on the battery life as well.
