I do have digital editions on my laptop so is it just the adobe version I download.

I just use the standard Ebook libary that I got with my 505. I'm nervous about calibre as I dont want to muck it all up. I have read about a new sony software update but could not find anything on the uk site.

Any help would be appreciated.

Yes it's the Abode version but it's not very pretty. If you have a windows computer, please look into the Lit format, you need to download Microsoft Lit Reader. Then just Google Convertlit Gui (that will help you deDRM Lit files), last but not lease Calibre, you can then make a Sony book in either LRF or ePud. After the initial setup, it takes about a minute to go to the steps.
