One workaround for the notes is to create for a file — something like "MyNotes.azw" with a few lines of text inside to anchor your notes upon— and then use it as a notepad.
Unfortunately, the newer firmware updates seem to have changed how the Kindle stores notes, so that the old MBPReader script to extract them no longer works.
However, if you copy over both MyNotes.azw and the associated .mbp file to Kindle for PC/Mac's My Kindle Content folder, then the next time you load it up, it should show your "notepad" with all the notes.
But there's currently no way to export them, and Amazon doesn't back them up.
On second thought, just "buy" one of those free public domain books, and use it as your "notepad".
Then you get the benefit of plenty of text to hang notes off of, Amazon backs up and syncs them between devices, and you can export them from the kindle.amazon.com mini-site where all your notes and such are saved and readable online.
