2. Well I use my own project for this: Feedbooks
3. 30-40 hours
4. Audiobooks is fine, but not on the reader, it ruins the battery, and I don't like the mp3 function of the reader that much
5. No
6. I love philosophy and russian authors from the XIXth, public domain books work fine for me. I also read books released under Creative Commons license.
7. No, e-books should cost a lot less than paper books.

I also read a few RSS feeds on my reader everyday (Techcrunch: http://www.feedbooks.com/news/rss/?i...m%2FTechcrunch ) and even twice a day for Slashdot: http://www.feedbooks.com/news/rss/?i...rg%2Findex.rss
They're automatically downloaded and synchronized using the software we're working on, before that I used to send them to my reader using libprs500.
I'm planning on using Dapper to extract the content from a few music websites that I read everyday: Pitchfork and Stylus Magazine.
This way I'll make my own custom PDF file, with these 2 websites + Techcrunch and Slashdot (well I already made a single PDF for these two: http://www.feedbooks.com/news/newspaper/1 ).
I'll read more and more RSS feeds on my PRS-500: I can concentrate on my reading this way, and e-ink looks better than any LCD screen.
