Mobility Site - View Single Post - SD to CF MICRO DRIVE + BATTERY LIFE WITH CF MICRO DRIVE + WM 5.0 ON CF MICRO DRIVE

I installed 2.2 GB CF-MICRO DRIVE today in my X50V. Battery dropped fast from 75% to 29% in fewer time than usual with only SD card.

I have some questions.

(1) Does CF-MICRO DRIVE affacts battery life? If yes, to what extent?
(2) Is it possible to copy existing SD card contents to CF Micro Drive as-it-is and editing registry by replacing 'SD Card' to 'CF Card' so I don't have to reinstall all programs? Can I copy and registry as a text file on my desktop pc and than replace the existing registry on my X50V with 'CF Card' in place of 'SD Card'?
(3) A very dumb question. If it is all about persistent storage, can we install Windows Mobile 5.0 to SD / CF Card / CF Micro Drive instead of ROM? If so, how to do that?
