Edge is developed with students, scientist and researchers in mind. I think it should not be compared with "ordinary" ereaders, since it's actually a netbook and a ereader. As for the battery life, with every new firmware update, we get more battery life. It's about 20h for eink reader with constant annotating, drawing etc. And drawing and annotation options are very advanced, there is no lag as in the PocketBook showed in the video (but we should have in mind it's in beta phase).
