Sony has released a downloadable firmware upgrade (http://www.sony.jp/products/Consumer/LIBRIE/download/dllist.html) (requires MySony ID) for its Librie e-book reader. The upgrade to firmware V1.2 is necessary to work with the updated Sony LIBRIe LE for Windows (http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3860) software, which finally supports BBeB-encrypted e-books from bookstores other than Timebook Town (http://www.timebooktown.jp/Service/index.asp).
