Thanks for any help anyone can give - or point me to a thread. Looking forward to using the site. It looks like a welcoming place with lots of great content.

Hello, quidproquo, and welcome to MobileRead.
You have to have a Kindle registered in order to download Kindle books, and then you would have to strip the drm in order to read them on the Sony..totally illegal.
No worries.......plenty of other sites......have you tried downloading books from the public library yet?
