If I put the music on and then try to read my book the device takes me back to the menu page after loading until I unplug my headset. This is only in Txt formatt and I have not tried it in anyother formats.
You say you are charging once a day, are you playing music through the day? I can't confirm but I believe I read that the battery last 7 hours playing mp3s. Also, what firmware are you running? Have you upgrade since getting your PP? The early firmware had a battery drain bug which was resolved in latter firmware releases.

Just to add to the thread, I am running Dec firmware (previously Nov), I didn't try the March out long enough to notice battery issues. Not since moving from the original firmware shipped with the PP have I had battery drain issues. I have some generic SD card (not SDHC - unfortunately I have never been able to find the class card it is).
