On the battery life issue, I have to say that any device I have owned (and I have owned a ton of PDA, iPods...etc over the years) I just plug them in overnight every other day or so. So to me the battery life of the 300 is absolutely miraculous. It gets better when you let it run all the way down, and then let it charge all the way up. The past two days I have read about 3 hours per day, and still have not lost a bar on my battery. I keep mine on the "m" font size, and on epub do about 3 page turns per "real" page (if you know what I mean).... On the iPhone, 2 hours of reading and by battery would be about gone.... (yes I know, back light, wifi, 3g, phone service, gps all hit the battery on the iPhone).... I am so thrilled now because I can read as much as I want, and without the eye strain
