PDF Bug

If you have both PDF's and ePub's on the same PRS 900 and bookmarks, when you attempt to sync with your PC or download from the Sony Store, you run a chance of the Protected Page Error on Shutdown which requires certain maneuvers to recover from a lock on the device. Even a reset does not make it recover.

To recover, one must open a different book at the cover page and then page down. All bookmarks, highlights and notes on all books are then lost. I reported it to Sony and it will be fixed on the next firmware upgrade.
