There has been three known expeditions there, one in a manned submersible in 1960 and also in a remotely operated underwater craft in 1995 and 2009 , the deepesst point called Challenger Deep goes down 36,000 feet (11,000 metres) and there is life there, as observed by the two men who went that far in 1960 (in a specially designed diving craft) the descent was aproximately 3 hours 15 minutes. The two men spent 20 minutes at the bottom of the ocean, they had to leave abruptly because the pressure cracked their viewport and they were concerned about having a hull breach...at that depth a breached hull would have squished the craft into something resembling a basketball :)

3 hours 15 minutes.

Actually what I posted above was slightly off, I just rechecked, the actual time was:

The descent to the ocean floor took 4 hours and 48 minutes at a descent rate of 0.914 m/s[1]..[2] After passing 9,000 metres one of the outer Plexiglas window panes cracked, shaking the entire vessel

 ;D

At the time of the expedition plexiglass was the only known material that would withstand the insane pressure at 11,000 metres... this is an exerpt on why they used plexiglass:

"Observation of the sea outside the craft was conducted directly by eye, via a single highly-tapered cone-shaped block of acrylic glass (Plexiglas), the only transparent substance identified which would withstand the needed pressures, at the design hull thickness. Outside illumination for the craft was provided by quartz arc-light bulbs, which proved to be able to withstand the over-1000 atmosphere pressure without any modification."

"To withstand the high pressure of 1.25 metric tons per cm² (110 MPa) at the bottom of Challenger Deep, the sphere's walls were 12.7 centimetres (5.0 in) thick"

Keep in mind this was 1960..now we have better suited materials that can withstand such pressure.

Is the device powered or is it like a stone? I say a stone would decent much faster then a powered vessel (those can't descend to fast due to pressure).

Like something with the weight and density of a bowling ball. Something would stay down there and transmit info...then after a while it would either shut off, or a central part of it would pop out with a air bubble-type balloon and a flag.

The last measurement was taken in 2009 by way of sonar

"The most recent (1 June 2009) sonar mapping of the Challenger Deep by the Simrad EM120 sonar multibeam bathymetry system for deep water (300 - 11,000 meters) mapping aboard the RV Kilo Moana, has indicated a spot with a depth of 10,971 m (35,994 ft) (6.82 miles depth). The sonar system uses phase and amplitude bottom detection, with an accuracy of better than 0.2% of water depth. [1] [2]"

Dont know, some type of smart balloon/air bubble. One that can regulate the air/density within and around it so that it can ascend upwards. Or some sort of propeller/miniture rocket at the bottom of the device to aid in the ascent as well.
I'm thinking that as I said, the device would be ejected out of the "deep sea satellite", which itself would be akin to a bowling ball (weight, density, size). In this would include measuring devices that take in all pertinent data ( depth, currents, density, life, minerals, etc). These devices would be located in the core, which would pop out.

it would be really scary if down there lives some kind of gigantic creatures larger than whales.. :-X

Giant Squid live close to those depths, they believe some of them have 80+ foot tentacles.  Every once in a while a whale will wash up on shore with a huge gash eaten out of it, and that's what killed it.
