CF microdrive REALLY eats at battery life... one of the main reasons I never switched from solid state.
I dont know how much it eats, but im pretty sure its compropable to having Wifi on.

Im not sure about the install directory part...it might all be in the windows directory with all the program data so it would be more of a challenge to move it there.

You can not install WM5 to a SD or CF. It would make it too easy for people to damage or crash their OS to make it unbootable. You CAN however install most if not all your apps to your CF or SD card.
