OK, let's have a go at answering these questions...

1) The iLiad will read HTML files, but it's not particularly good at it. Page turning is very slow. If I want to read an HTML file, I tend to reformat it at iLiad page size and save as PDF.

2) Scribble will only work on PDF documents. The scribbled stuff is saved as a separate file, which can be merged with the PDF on the PC, but you don't get separate files for each page which has been scribbled on.

3) No

4) No

5) I'd agree with axel77, you're expecting much more of the iLiad than it delivers. Or at least, different things. As an ebook reader it's great, as a thing for scribbling in the margins of books, or making handwritten notes on, its great. As an HTML editor, it's useless, but then again it's not designed as an HTML editor.
