Multi-level folders are not a problem. When connected via USB, one of the iLiad's user-level filesystems (e.g. internal memory or CF card) is exported to your desktop - just like a USB memory stick.
The multi-level folders are accessible on the iLiad, but the primary file interface (the content lister) is showing its age and is sub-standard relative to newer e-book readers. It only shows 6 files per page, as shown in the attached screenshot (if the text looks bad the image has been rescaled by your browser, click on it to get the full sized image).
I don't know how well the iLiad's web browser will handle downloaded websites, but if a web browser can navigate the downloaded site on a desktop it should also work on the iLiad. An alternative is to create a Plucker file on your desktop (e.g. using
Sunrise) and then read the plucker file with FBReader. I have never used this for an entire web-site, but it works well for simple page hierarchies. You can test Sunrise and FBReader on a Windows desktop to see if they fit your needs.
So far as I know, you can only highlight and make notes in PDFs.
