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).
I can't run any music from it while reading... I am running the March firmware right now. I went from charing it about once every two to three days to having to charge it while reading...
