Is the session state timeout setting in the web.config the same as IIS 7 idle timeout setting? If not, which one takes priority? I would like to increase users sessions to a couple of hours.

Idle timeout is for the application pool as a whole. It kicks in if all the applications linked to the pool have had no activity within the set time.
Session state is per session. This is specifically for a single user session. You can have many sessions occurring at any single time.
