Hi anniep,
We have a Sony PRS-505 and PRS-700 in our home and we often both read the same DRM'ed eBooks, that we purchased or got for free from the eBook Store or other on-line store, at the same time. Reading together is fun and can generate some good conversation.
If the books are non-DRM'ed, and both devices can read in the same format then there is also no problem sharing. Or, use Calibre to convert a non-DRM'ed format to any format that can be read on the device(s) you have.
In other words, if all the readers you have can read a specific format, and it is a format you like, then there should be no problem sharing.
WDE.
