If I see conditions like yours (unresponsiveness), this is easy fixed by a reset, but don't forget to connect the device to the power before short pressing reset button.
Regarding the ADE-related matters - please keep in mind that this firmware is still a test version! On my readers DRMed books does work fine (with the exception of infamous 6-devices rule, which I personally hate, it never can be fine with me.
I have been reding on my 360° for over 6 weeks now. The only instability problems that I have come across are due to some really badly made PDFs that have been made with some free printer driver or something. It's really not so much the size that has an influence, I think.

As for the 6-devices rule, that's really a bummer. I think there should be some exceptions (for the producers, testers, reviewers and so on).
