some collective questions of a noob

hello there ,
i have just received my 1000S , and after using it for over 4 days ,i upgraded to firmware v 1.5
right now , i have some problems ,namely:
1. device does not have any charger , so we are left with the USB PC charge , which is not much of a hassle, but after the suspend feature added , it is. in fact , the device goes to sleep mode, during a charge. previously in v1 i realized that for the device to get a full charge , i need to leave it on. what can i do now?
2. i have read somewhere , that the device SD slot is not IO capable , is that correct? i was meant to add either BT or Wifi connectivity to it , with the help of some SD modules , if it can not be a host for such devices , my dreams are dead.any new leads?
3.if there any alternative software to myscript notes , to import our hand written material?
4.there is no brightness settings on the device right?
5. i have heard about iliad , that it is capable of play back , for files such as MP3s , in DR however, that is not the case. i figured since MP3 is protected by copyright , there would be need for some 3rd part apps , any suggestions?
6. a while back i have come upon a great solution to see web content in the format of PDFs in this forum which was in fact a plugin addon for FireFox , is it PDF Download?
8. i have used the latest version of FBReader and even used the new contentlist , but i couldn't open PDB files , which are originally intended for iSilo program to view them , is it natural ? i mean the program opens the file when i click on it , and then in the FBReader page , all i see is the basic first page of help file. any suggestions?
7. on a more wide basis , could you please refer me to a more widely based service ,that gathered all the programs developped for DRs? i have read that all software developed for iliad would work here , but as far as i researched ,that is not the case. correct me please , if i'm wrong.
i know every new user is a pain in the ... , but please , bear with me.
cheers
