That depends on the usage.  Constant usage is around 3 hours now, but  
that's without any power management at all.   When the screen dims  
and the wireless goes in to power-saving mode, the life goes way up.

Probably not.  Better a side table where you can have a wire to keep  
it charged.  When it's in the charging stand it acts as a Now Playing  
screensaver while playing, or defaults to a clock screensaver when not.

Yes.

 From inserting the battery, through cold-boot, wireless association  
and connection to the server is about 40 seconds at this point, or  
half what my cell phone takes. :)
