...waiting for my 505 to arrive in a few days, I'm trying to acclimatate myself with the software: I was in particular very happy to discover that there is a way of getting the NYTimes on the Sony.

Using libprs500 - last version installed today - I downloaded the NYTimes, but although I'm sure I put the correct username/password (I tried 5 times, and even reregistered!) the downloaded content was only ~ 9 MB of headlines, each ending with the notification that the articles content is subscriber-only.

Same problem, any of you?

thanks!

Alessandro

I can confirm, Kovid fixed it in the latest version.

is the version you're talking about available as plain download, or is it some kind of CVS, dev-only sourcecode? Because I checked the error on the binary downloaded last friday...

Last week's version is not the version that is up now. 0.4.19 is the current version.
